Taproot Construction

Taproot Construction is a Charlotte, North Carolina-based specialty contractor founded in 2017 that focuses on deep foundation solutions, excavation support systems, earth retention structures, grouting services, and solar energy infrastructure. The company has developed expertise in post installation for solar projects—particularly on challenging sites where conventional pile driving is impractical due to rocky terrain or other obstacles. Taproot has drilled and installed over 150,000 posts for major EPCs nationwide by leveraging advanced drilling techniques and custom proposals tailored to each client’s needs.
Their team brings together more than six decades of combined management and field experience across construction disciplines. Taproot collaborates closely with design teams to optimize project outcomes—including maximizing post lengths through in-house testing when required—and prides itself on delivering knowledgeable solutions with an emphasis on safety, teamwork, honesty, education, and integrity.
The company also provides comprehensive services for soil nail walls (both driven/drilled), shotcrete applications for flexible faces or shoring systems, micropiles/helical piers/underpinning for deep foundations work as well as specialized anchoring solutions such as rock anchors/tiebacks—all supporting both renewable energy installations and broader construction markets.
