Excavation, Site Prep & Pond Work for Central Arkansas
We prep raw land for building and handle pond construction, repair, and restoration. One company handles the whole job, so nothing gets lost between the guy who clears and the guy who pours. We're based in Heber Springs and work the counties around it, from lake lots above Greers Ferry to farm acreage out past Clinton, where rock and red clay can trade places inside a single lot.

Excavation
Site excavation and dirt work for new homes, farm improvements, and every project where the ground has to be right before anything else can start.

Pond Construction & Repair
New ponds built around soil, clay, and watershed conditions, plus leak diagnosis, sealing, muck removal, and restoration.

Land Clearing
Brush and timber cleared from home sites, farm ground, and lake lots, with stumps and root balls out of the ground instead of buried where your slab will sit.

Access Roads & Driveways
Gravel driveways and private roads with real base material and culverts set where the water actually crosses, so you can reach your property in any weather.

Drainage, Retaining Walls & Erosion Control
Large-scale drainage work, retention and detention ponds, swales, and structural retaining walls that keep water moving and hillsides where they belong.

Building Pads & Grading
House pads, barn pads, and shop pads graded and built on compacted fill that holds its shape long after the build is finished.

Hiring different outfits leaves nobody in charge of the finished site. We handle all of it under one contract.
Cleared and graded. Timber, brush, and stumps off the building site, then fill placed and compacted in lifts so the pad still holds its shape under the slab years from now.
Accessible and drained. Driveway and culvert with county approval sorted first, swales and pond outfall laid out alongside the grade, and retaining walls where the slope calls for them.
One estimate, one schedule. Every phase priced on paper before a machine rolls onto the property.

Everything You Build Sits on the Dirt, Work
A cracked slab, a flooded pad, or a driveway that washes out every spring almost always traces back to dirt work that was rushed or skipped.
The Ground Gets Compacted
Fill placed and compacted in lifts, so the pad under your slab holds its shape instead of settling out from under it.
Water Gets a Route
Grade and drainage planned together, so runoff leaves the property on purpose rather than finding the low spot on its own.
The Base Goes In Last
Road and driveway base built on ground that's already stable, which is the difference between a drive that lasts and one you regrade every spring.
