// What site prep is

Everything that happens before the build

Site prep is all the ground work that turns a lot into a place you can actually build - clearing what's in the way, digging and moving dirt, and grading it flat and solid. We do the whole sequence with one crew.

Builders and owners around Binghamton bring us in to:

  • ✓  Clear a wooded or overgrown lot down to workable ground
  • ✓  Dig the footprint and rough in drainage
  • ✓  Grade a flat, stable pad for a home, garage, or building
  • ✓  Cut in access for equipment and a future driveway
  • ✓  Get a commercial lot ready for a metal building or slab

Not sure what your lot needs first? We'll walk it with you and lay out the sequence and the cost.

One crew from clearing to grade

The value of site prep is not juggling a clearing crew, a dig crew, and a grading crew. We handle the whole run.

// The whole job, start to finish

What's included

A typical site prep job covers as much or as little of this as you need:

  • Land and lot clearing to open the footprint
  • Excavation for foundations, drainage, and utilities
  • Rough and finish grading to a build-ready pad
  • Access roads and driveway cuts
  • Erosion and water management around the site

// How it works

How a site prep job goes

Four steps. We map the sequence with you before we start.

Walk the Lot

We review the plan and the ground, and lay out what happens in what order.

Free Estimate

A clear written number for the whole scope, or by phase.

Clear & Dig

We clear the footprint, dig the foundation, and rough in drainage.

Grade the Pad

We grade it flat and solid and leave you a lot that's ready to build.

// What it costs

What goes into the price

Every lot starts in a different place, so we walk it first, then give you an honest number. Big drivers:

🌳

How grown-in it is

A wooded lot needs clearing first; open ground jumps straight to dirt work.

📏

Cut & fill

How much dirt has to move to make a flat, stable pad.

🛣

Access & terrain

Slopes, wet ground, and tight access all add time to the sequence.

🚦

Drainage needs

Sites that need real water management take more than a simple grade.

The only way to know for sure is to look. Book a free estimate and we'll give you a straight answer.

// Common questions

Site prep questions

Can you take my lot all the way from woods to build-ready?

Yes - that's the point of hiring one crew. We clear it, dig it, and grade it so you hand your builder a finished pad instead of coordinating three separate contractors.

Do you work from the builder's plans?

We do. Most site prep is part of a bigger project, so we work to the site plan and the grades your builder or engineer gives us, on their schedule.

Residential or commercial?

Both. A house pad, a garage, a barn, or a commercial metal building or slab - we size the crew and equipment to the job.

Who handles permits?

Permits and any required plans are the owner's or general contractor's responsibility. We do the physical work once those are in place, and we're glad to coordinate timing.
