Dirt Work in Mineral Wells, TX

Telephone: (940) 452-7412

Pads, driveways, culverts and grading in and around Mineral Wells — about twenty-five minutes from our shop in Graford.

Mineral Wells dirt work splits two ways. In town it is lot prep, slab and pad work, drive approaches and drainage fixes where water sits against a house or garage. Out on the county roads it is shop and barn pads, long gravel drives, entrances with culverts, and tank work.

We work for owners directly and for builders who need a dirt package done to plan and on schedule, on both the Palo Pinto and Parker County sides of town.

The ground around Mineral Wells

Drainage is the problem we get called about most here: yards and drives where water runs toward the house instead of away from it. Grade is cheap to fix before a slab goes in and expensive after.

What we do most here

House, garage and shop pads
Driveway builds and washout repair
Culverts and drive approaches
Yard and lot drainage correction
Site grading for builders
Trenching for water and power

Worth knowing before you start

City vs county. Inside city limits, driveway approaches and some site work go through the City of Mineral Wells; outside, through the county. We will point you to the right office.
Locates. Every dig starts with a Texas811 utility locate — in town that matters more, not less.
Builders. Send your site plan and grading sheet and we will price the dirt package off it.

Recent work like this

A Cat dozer with its blade down on freshly worked brown dirt beside a building site, under an overcast sky — **Finish grade around a build site**The last pass is the one people walk on. Blade it smooth, hold the fall away from the structure, and leave it ready to seed or rock.

A red Kubota compact track loader with a land plane on a freshly graded red dirt building pad at sunset, with a crescent moon overhead — **Building pad, cut and rolled**Pad cut, shaped and rolled out to the stakes, with the fall carried away from where the slab goes. Get this part right and the concrete crew has nothing to argue with.

A newly laid crushed limestone driveway running through an iron gate and stone column, climbing through cedar toward the top of a rise — **Gravel drive, base laid and crowned**Fresh base rock laid the full width from the gate back, crowned so water runs off the edges instead of cutting a rut down the middle. Cheap driveways are the ones you rebuild every spring.
