Featured Projects

Historic Dam Restoration – 1927 Steam Engine Reservoir
Location: West Texas
When we were called to help restore this nearly century-old dam, we knew it was more than just a job — it was a piece of history. After sealing the back slope, re-coring the structure, and clearing decades of tree growth, we reshaped the dam for safety, long-term stability, and easier maintenance. This one got messy, but the results speak for themselves.

TXDOT Road Repair
Scope: Milling, paving, and traffic control
Working with the Texas Department of Transportation, we milled and repaved key highway sections while managing traffic on all four sides of the intersection. This job required precision, coordination, and smooth teamwork from start to finish.
We kept things moving — literally and figuratively.

Custom Pads & Site Prep
Client: Local construction team
Whether it’s a barndominium pad, a shop slab, or a full home foundation, we create clean, compacted, level bases that make future builds easier and longer lasting. From rough grade to final prep — we’ve got you covered.

Private Ranch Roads
Built from the base up, this private ranch now features fully graded and compacted roads ready for heavy equipment, livestock hauling, and daily traffic. Designed for durability and drainage in mind.
