“Lot-Prep” Package: Stumping → Stripping → Foundation → Utilities
Juggling three subcontractors can wreck a timeline and inflate costs.

You hand us the plat map, we hand you a permit-ready pad that’s begging for footings.

- Topsoil stripping & export
- Pad grading to ± 0.10′ with laser box blade
- Water, sewer, and electric rough-in trenches

- Hydroseed, sod, or loam lawn installs
