East Texas Site Prep You Can Count On

Dirt work is the first and most important step in any construction project. Without proper land prep, structures can shift, drainage can fail, and long-term problems can cost you time and money. That’s why we approach every site with careful planning, professional equipment, and a clear strategy tailored to your specific location and goals. We don’t just move dirt—we prepare your land to perform.

Comprehensive Dirt Work Services Tailored to Your Land

At Solid 5 Construction, we understand that quality dirt work is the foundation of every successful build. Whether you’re preparing a residential lot, commercial development, or rural property, our team provides reliable, precise, and fully customized site preparation services. We evaluate every job based on the land’s unique topography, soil composition, drainage patterns, and intended use—then execute with the right equipment, technique, and care. From initial clearing to final grading, we’re here to help you shape your land with confidence.

Site Clearing

We remove vegetation, trees, stumps, rocks, and other obstructions to clear the way for construction. Our team uses precision equipment to minimize ground disturbance while getting your site ready for excavation or grading. Whether you’re starting a new build or making space for a future addition, we handle the mess so you can focus on progress.

Excavation

Our excavation services are ideal for projects that require precise digging, trenching, or soil removal. From pond installs and foundation prep to utility line trenches and drainage solutions, we work efficiently to create clean, code-compliant cuts at the correct depth and slope.

Grading & Leveling

Uneven ground can lead to pooling water, shifting foundations, and landscaping issues. We sculpt your land to support proper drainage, structural stability, and long-term erosion control. Grading also prepares your site for roads, pads, and future development with an even, compacted surface.

Soil Compaction

Before concrete is poured or structures are framed, the ground needs to be strong enough to support it. Our soil compaction services reduce settling, increase density, and create a dependable base for everything from homes and shops to driveways and heavy equipment.

Driveway and Road Bed Prep

Whether you’re adding a private driveway to a new home or building out a service road on rural land, we design and prepare access points that last. From sub-base prep to final grading, we ensure your roads are stable, well-drained, and ready to take on East Texas weather.

A Custom Approach for Every Property

No two job sites are the same. That’s why our team evaluates your land’s slope, soil type, drainage patterns, and project scope before starting any work. We take pride in offering honest recommendations and custom solutions that reflect your land’s true potential.
