Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Site Preparation
What does site preparation include?+
Site preparation includes clearing, grading, soil compaction, drainage installation, utility locates, and creating a stable base for construction. It is the foundation that determines the longevity of every project built on top.
How long does site prep take for a backyard project?+
Basic site preparation takes 3-7 days for a typical residential backyard. Complex projects with significant grade changes, rock removal, or drainage systems may take 2-3 weeks.
Do you handle utility locates before excavation?+
Yes. We coordinate all utility locates (gas, electric, water, cable, fiber) before any excavation begins. This is required by Texas law and protects both your property and our crew.
Can you work on sloped or uneven properties?+
Absolutely. Many DFW properties have significant grade changes. We use retaining walls, terracing, and engineered grading to create level areas for courts, patios, pools, and other features.
