Site Survey & Planning

We assess soil conditions, drainage patterns, and topography. Local Woodstock sites often include clay slopes and wetland buffers. Planning ensures zero rework.

Permit & Erosion Control

Woodstock requires Land Development Permits (LDP) for any disturbance over 0.1 acre. We coordinate permits and install sediment controls before mobilizing equipment.

Clearing & Removal

We clear timber, brush, and debris while protecting critical areas. Material is recycled or hauled. Grading follows site plan specifications.

Precise Grading

Equipment operators use GPS and laser grading for exact cuts and fills. We meet slope, compaction, and drainage specs to code.

Inspection & Closeout

Final grade is surveyed and verified. We coordinate with city inspectors and provide as-built documentation for your records.

Material Hauling

Excess soil, rock, and debris are transported off-site or stockpiled. We track all material movement for permit compliance.
