Get the ground right first

Pavement is only as good as the ground under it. Before we pave anything, the site has to be graded so water drains off, not into the base. We do the same work for customers who just need a lot shaped, a pad leveled or an old surface torn out.

Grading and site work we do

  • Cut and fill to set the grade
  • Shaping lots and pads for new construction
  • Tear-out and removal of old asphalt
  • Grading for driveways, parking lots and roads
  • Prep work as a subcontractor for builders and site developers

Everything is done with our own skid steers and excavators, run by a crew with decades of experience.

How grading and site preparation works

  1. We walk the site

    We look at the slope, the soil and where the water goes, and measure the area.

  2. You get a price and a plan

    A free estimate with the work we'll do and how long it should take.

  3. We cut, fill and shape

    Our skid steers and excavators move the dirt and set the grade.

  4. Ready for the next step

    The ground is ready for base stone and asphalt, whether we pave it or someone else builds on it.

Grading & Site Prep FAQs

Do you only grade for jobs you pave?

No. We do grading and site prep on its own, and as the first step of our paving jobs.

What equipment do you use?

Our own skid steers and excavators. We don't rent, so we can schedule the work without waiting on a rental yard.

Can you fix drainage problems on a driveway or lot?

Many drainage problems come from the grade. We'll look at where the water is going on the estimate visit and tell you what we'd recommend.
