What Brent Scarbrough and Company does

Brent Scarbrough & Company is a heavy civil site contractor headquartered in Newnan, Georgia, that provides full turn-key site development services for commercial, industrial, healthcare, aviation, renewable energy, and multi-family residential developers across the Southeast United States. Founded in 1985 by Brent Scarbrough as an erosion control business while he was a student at Southern Polytechnic State University, the company has grown over nearly four decades into a diversified site preparation contractor serving marquee enterprise and government clients including BMW, Amazon, Costco, Rivian, Toyota, Carvana, Chick-fil-A, Publix, Niagara Bottling, Emory Healthcare, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. The firm is 100% employee-owned via an Employee Stock Ownership Plan established in 2017, when founder Brent Scarbrough sold the company to its workforce while retaining the CEO role; President Shane Waters, a 1996 hire, leads day-to-day operations.

The company's service portfolio integrates seven specialized capabilities under a single coordinated delivery model: demolition, clearing and grinding, grading and excavation, storm sewer and water installation, horizontal boring, and portable rock crushing. Operationally, BSC differentiates through specialized capital assets — horizontal boring technology for navigating challenging terrains and avoiding existing utilities, and portable rock crushing fleets that enable on-site aggregate processing to eliminate offsite transportation and processing costs. The company targets large-scale enterprise construction projects requiring comprehensive site preparation, with service offerings that can be purchased individually or as part of a comprehensive turn-key package providing clients with a single point of contact from groundbreaking through final site readiness.

Revenue is generated exclusively through project-based contracts secured via competitive bidding and direct enterprise relationships, with no public pricing and custom-quoted scopes tied to site conditions, project specifications, and requirements. The go-to-market motion is direct enterprise field sales with no intermediary distribution channels; customer acquisition leans on a vertical-organized project portfolio website, industry awards (AGC Build GA, ABC Merit, STEP Platinum safety recognition), and active LinkedIn and YouTube presence, while employee recruitment is supported by a dedicated careers page emphasizing the ESOP ownership structure. The firm maintains 101–250 employees and operates from a single headquarters location at 45 E Aviation Way, Newnan, GA.
