Building pads

A building pad is the ground your slab or foundation sits on, so it has to be level, firm, and drain properly. I cut, fill, and compact the pad for new construction, shops, and barns.

If you have a site plan from your builder or engineer, bring it to the estimate. If you don't, tell me the size and what's going on top, and we'll talk it through.

Site prep

Before a pad, the site usually needs clearing and rough grading, and often a plan for where the water will go. I handle those steps together, so you're not coordinating several contractors. See land clearing and drainage & swales.

How it works

  1. Call or text. Tell me where the site is and what you're building.
  2. I come out and look. I look at the ground and the slope, talk through the pad with you, and give you the estimate on site. It's free.
  3. I do the work myself. I run the machines myself, from rough grade to finished pad.

Questions

Do you build pads for shops and barns?

Yes. New construction, shops, and barns are all part of the work.

Can you clear the lot first?

Yes. Clearing and site prep are part of the same job, so it can all be done in one visit.

How do I get an estimate?

Call or text (830) 649-9736. I'll come out, look at the site, and give you the estimate there. It costs nothing.
