Common Questions About Site Prep & Grading
How long does site preparation take?
Most residential site prep and foundation excavation takes 2-5 days depending on size, soil conditions, and whether basement excavation is needed. We provide a specific timeline after assessing your property.
Do you work with general contractors?
We work directly with property owners on a non-subcontractor basis. If you’re building with a contractor, we coordinate with them on specifications and timing.
What's included in site grading?
Site grading includes evaluating your property’s drainage, removing topsoil, grading to proper slope, and preparing the foundation area. We make sure water drains away from your building site.
Can you dig basements in Kansas soil?
Yes. We evaluate soil stability and water table conditions before digging. Miami & Franklin County soil varies, so we assess each property individually to determine the best approach.
What if you hit rock or difficult soil?
We assess soil conditions before starting. If we encounter unexpected rock or challenging soil, we’ll discuss options and any additional work needed before proceeding.
