These are the questions Southeast Louisiana property owners ask us
most: what dirt work covers, how far we travel, how a job gets priced,
and what wet ground does to the schedule. If yours is not here, call
or text and ask us directly.
Dirt work is any work that moves or shapes the dirt on a property. That covers clearing a lot, digging, grading a yard so it drains, and building a pad. Gravel drives and hauling in fill count too. So does taking out an old slab.
How far do you travel?
We work a 50 mile radius around Hammond. That reaches Baton Rouge, Denham Springs, Covington, Mandeville, Slidell, New Orleans, and southern Mississippi. Closer towns like Ponchatoula, Amite City and LaPlace are routine for us. If your property sits near the edge of that circle, call and ask.
Do you charge for an estimate?
No, estimates are free. We come out, look the ground over, and give you a price for the job. Call or text (985) 500-4145 with the address and what you need done. We will set a time to come by, and the visit costs you nothing.
How do you price a job?
Price comes down to what the ground asks for. How much dirt has to move, and how far it has to travel. What is in the way, and how easy it is to get a machine in. Wet ground and tight access add time, so we look at the site before we quote.
Will you take a small job?
Yes. A load of dirt dumped in one low spot is real work to us. So is one stump dug out, or a short stretch of gravel driveway regraded. Small jobs get a free estimate and a real price, same as big ones.
Do you work for homeowners or for contractors?
Both. Homeowners call us for yards that hold water and lots that need clearing. Builders and businesses call us for building pads and demolition on commercial property. The machines and the process are the same, and both get a free estimate before the work starts.
Can you work after all the rain we get?
Most of the time, yes. Ground around Hammond holds water, and the water table sits high, so we plan for that. Some jobs wait a few days for the ground to firm up after heavy rain. Pushing wet dirt makes ruts and a mess, so we pick a better day.
What is the best way to reach you?
Call or text (985) 500-4145. Text works well when the crew is on a machine, and photos come through that way. The form on this site reaches us as well. We are on job sites most of the day, so give us a little time to get back to you.
