Our goal is not simply to move dirt. We prepare the property around how it will actually be used.

-
Depending on the project, we can provide clearing, excavation, grading and building-pad preparation as part of the overall site-preparation process.
-
We provide grading and drainage solutions for standing water, runoff, erosion and other drainage problems. We first consider where the water is coming from and how it moves across the property before determining the appropriate solution.

We use professional equipment including our John Deere compact track loader, SANY excavator, grading bucket, rock rake, grapple bucket, and other specialized attachments. Using the right equipment allows us to complete grading projects efficiently while achieving accurate, consistent results.
-
It depends on the work and property. Springfield regulates certain building, demolition, grading, stormwater and land-disturbance activities. For example, the city’s land-disturbance program applies to sites disturbing one acre or more and certain smaller sites associated with larger developments. Property owners should verify the requirements applicable to their particular project before work begins.

Missouri 811 can locate many public utilities, while private utility lines, septic systems, wells, and irrigation systems should also be identified to help prevent accidental damage.

There isn’t a reliable per-acre price that applies to every property. Cost depends on vegetation density, tree size, terrain, equipment access, acreage, disposal requirements, the equipment required and what condition you want the property left in.
-
Forestry mulching pricing also depends on vegetation type and density, tree size, terrain, acreage, access and the desired result. An on-site evaluation provides a much more useful estimate than an acreage-only price.
