What we excavate
Foundation cuts for residential and light commercial builds. Basement digs, rare in North Texas but we do them. Farm and recreational ponds sized two-thousand square feet up to full tank builds. Drainage trenches, swales, and French drains to move water off the pad. Utility cuts for water, sewer, electric, and gas laterals. General site excavation for retaining walls, slabs, and outbuildings.
The dirt work the builder won't tell you about
Undercut and proof-roll before the engineer shows up. Spoils hauled or spread on-site where the grade allows. Keeper trees protected with flagging and crane-matting if the cut runs close. Silt fence and erosion control if the job triggers an SWPPP. The stuff that makes the difference between a smooth inspection and a punch list.
How we scope a job
We walk the site with the plans, look at access, look at drainage, and check what's actually in the ground, which in North Texas often means fractured limestone where the plan said clay. Then we quote with line items: cut, haul, compact, backfill, erosion control. No mystery allowances.
Residential, commercial, and ranch
A quarter-acre home pad and a twenty-acre subdivision prep aren't the same job, but the standard is the same: right equipment, honest timeline, clean hand-off. We run work from custom-home pad cuts up through subdivision site prep and out to ranch tank digs and pond builds.
