Drainage done right in Highland Pines
We read where the water actually goes, then move it on purpose with graded swales, french drains, drywells, and culverts sized for a real storm. The goal is to carry runoff away from the structure and off the lot without dumping it on the neighbor.
A lot that sheds a monsoon cleanly, keeps water off the foundation, and stops eroding the same spot every summer.

A full fleet of excavators, loaders, and attachments to handle rock, slope, and scale, from a single pad to a full site.
04Licensed, insured, dependable
Fully licensed under AZ ROC #359583 and insured, with realistic schedules and clear communication start to finish.
Because monsoon water sheets fast off these pine slopes, we build swales and french drains that catch it uphill and route it around the foundation instead of letting it run through the pad.
Highland Pines is high country west of Prescott, up in the pines against the edge of the Prescott National Forest, where select lots carry horse privileges and miles of horse and ATV trails run straight off the property. It sits inside a designated fire mitigation area, which shapes every job that happens here.
The ground is granite and decomposed granite under a heavy ponderosa canopy, with slope, boulders, and shallow rock the norm rather than the exception. Access can be tight through the trees, and the same fuel load that makes the neighborhood beautiful is a real fire concern that the county wants managed. Water moves off these slopes fast in the monsoon.
Building or clearing next to the National Forest in a mitigation area means the fire rules are not optional, and doing it wrong endangers the whole neighborhood. An owner here needs a licensed contractor who works to the guidelines and respects the slope and the trees at the same time.
