The start of a new era on New Era Rd! We just finalized the complete demolition of this trailer park. It had 46 mobile homes and three large buildings onsite! As the job progressed, I learned that this was the first construction project my grandpa worked on digging in the sewer lines for the trailers in the early 70s. How ironic, three generations later we were there to start the first phase of this new project!

Finally a spell of dry weather! Now is the time to schedule your upcoming projects for fall and early winter. The ground is firm to get trucks and equipment around most anywhere with little to no issues.

Runoff from these heavy rains sure take a toll on driveways. Once water finds its path of least resistance it can cause issues quickly. Instead of just filling in the current wash out, we cut in a swell to redirect water run off to ensure a smooth gravel driveway after all these heavy rains. If your having similar issues, give us a call or text at (618)967-1955!

The initial phase of this new home site development involves preparing the land for a pole barn construction project. We commenced by clearing and removing all stumps from the area, followed by transporting 90 loads of clay dirt in our truck to create a level pad. This time of year is ideal for such projects due to the hardened ground surface and dry weather conditions. To schedule your next project, contact us at (618)967-1955!
