What we do

Seven kinds of dirt work

If it involves moving dirt, taking something down, or making a piece of property usable again, it is on this list. Most jobs end up being two or three of them at once, and we price them as one job. See everything that counts as dirt work →

Land Clearing

Mesquite, cedar and shin oak taken off the acre — roots and all — so the grass comes back and the property is usable again.

Typical job: 1–40 acresTurnaround: Most jobs start within 1–2 weeks
See details →

Demolition

Old house, leaning barn, burned-out mobile home or a slab you want gone — torn down, hauled off and left clean enough to build on.

Typical job: 1–5 days on siteFinish: Site left graded and clean
See details →

House & Barn Pads

A pad that is set high enough, packed tight enough, and drains the right direction — so the slab your builder pours sits on ground that will not move.

Typical job: 1–3 daysWorks with: Your builder's plan or ours
See details →

Driveways & Culverts

An entrance that does not wash out — built up, crowned, rocked and piped so you can get a truck and trailer in after a rain.

Typical job: 1–2 daysMaterials: Caliche, crushed base, rock
See details →

Ponds & Drainage

New tanks dug, old ones cleaned out, dams rebuilt, and water moved away from the places it should not be sitting.

Typical job: 2–6 daysAlso covers: Erosion & washout repair
See details →

Site Prep & Grading

Rough grade to finish grade — the dirt work that happens before anybody else can start, done to elevation and on schedule.

Typical job: 1–7 daysFor: Builders, owners, developers
See details →

Stump Removal

Stumps pulled out with the root ball, holes filled and packed, and the ground raked clean enough to mow.

Typical job: Half day–2 daysFinish: Holes backfilled and packed

Why owners call us back

You talk to the man running the machine

Precision is owner-operated. When you call, you get Trey Ranft — not a scheduler, not a lead service that sells your number to four other contractors. The person who quotes the job is the person on the job.

That matters most on the parts nobody quotes: whether the debris really leaves, whether the pad drains the right way, whether the culvert is big enough for the ditch it is sitting in. We would rather tell you what a job actually needs and lose it than quote it thin and hand you a problem.

  • Written estimate with the scope and the haul-off spelled out
  • Local — most of our work is inside a 45-minute radius of Graford
  • We show up on the day we said, or we call before you have to
  • Site left clean and graded, not covered in tracks and debris

How it goes

You call or text

Reach Trey Ranft directly at (940) 452-7412. Tell us what you have and roughly where it is. No call center, no lead form that sells your number to five contractors.

We come look at it. Ground, access, rock, drainage and what you actually want at the end of it — none of which shows up in a photo.

You get a written number

A free written estimate with the scope spelled out, including debris and haul-off. If something could change the price, we tell you what and why before we start.

We do the work and clean up

We show up when we said, do what we quoted, and leave the site clean. You get a call when we are done, not a surprise.

What people say

Google reviewers keep bringing up the same four things: stump removal, driveway work, fair pricing, reliable.

★★★★★

Excellent work by Trey & Precision Excavation. We installed 4 drain pipes with a main line and bedding rock, four truck of fill dirt and added about 2 feet elevation to the lower end. Top notch equipment and skilled operator. Very affordable price. I would highly recommend them for your next project.

Highly recommend! Quoted it fair, showed up earlier than expected and did a great job. Removed a few stumps so we could open up the fence for the new driveway. A+++.

Common questions

How much does land clearing cost per acre around Palo Pinto County?

Most clearing lands between $1,500 and $8,000 an acre, and where a job falls in that comes down to density and what you want done with the roots. Light brush and cedar runs $1,500 to $2,500 an acre. Medium density with trees and brush is $2,500 to $5,000. Heavy timber where the stumps come out too is $5,000 to $8,000 and up. Grubbing roots costs more than cutting tops. Those are ranges, not a quote — the real number comes after somebody stands on the ground, and that estimate is free and in writing.

Do you charge for an estimate?

No. Estimates are free, including the trip out to look at it, anywhere in our normal service area.

What areas do you cover?

We are based in Graford at Possum Kingdom Lake and work Palo Pinto County and all surrounding counties — Parker, Jack, Young, Stephens, Erath and Hood. If you are not sure whether you are in range, call and ask.

Are you insured?

Yes.

How soon can you start?

Most jobs start within one to two weeks. Small jobs can often be worked in sooner, and dry-weather work like tank digging books further out in late summer.

Free estimate. No pressure.
