Site preparation

Site preparation creates the base needed before asphalt, pavers, slabs or other exterior work. It can include excavation, grading, placement of granular material, compaction and slope correction to produce a stable surface and support proper drainage.

The performance of asphalt, pavers or slabs depends directly on what lies underneath. Careful preparation combines excavation, grading, a granular foundation, compaction and slopes adapted to the project.

YOUR PROJECT

Let’s talk about your project.

A properly prepared base reduces settlement and helps the finished surface perform through changing seasons. Excavation depth, materials and compaction should be adapted to the surface and loads planned for the project.
