House Pads done right in Chino De Manana

We cut to the surveyed grade, remove the unsuitable material, then bring the pad up in lifts and compact each one to spec. On rock we rip and shape rather than fight it, and we set the pad so water drains away from the building instead of pooling against it.

A level, compacted pad that holds elevation, passes compaction testing, and is ready for your slab or stem wall on the day you scheduled the pour.

The ground in Chino De Manana

On a Chino De Manana lot we cut to grade and build the pad up in compacted lifts, setting it to drain so a value-priced home does not end up with a slab sitting in valley-floor water.

Chino De Manana sits at the south end of Chino Valley and leans toward more affordable homes, which puts it closer to Prescott Valley and the highway than the far northern acreage. Lots here are sized for a house and yard, so the site work is scaled to a single build rather than a ranch spread.

The ground is southern Chino Valley soil, clay and decomposed granite with caliche underneath, sitting mostly flat with some gentle roll toward the south end. Caliche still makes trenching a real job, and the flat clay still needs drainage built rather than assumed. Access off the paved and graded roads is generally straightforward.

On a value-priced build the budget is tight, so a pad that settles or a drive that washes turns into money the owner did not plan to spend. Getting it done right and to code the first time, by someone licensed, is what protects a build that cannot absorb a redo.

Prescott's trusted excavation contractor

DB cut and compacted our pad on a rocky lot in Prescott Valley. Dead level and ready for the slab. Professional from the estimate through final cleanup.

Mike R.House pad · Prescott Valley

We use DB for site prep across our builds. Pads come in to grade, they hit the schedule, and the work passes inspection. A reliable partner for our crews.

Dustin K.General contractor · Chino Valley

Our lot wouldn't drain. DB regraded it and installed a drainage system, handled the rock without drama, and stayed on budget. Excellent work.
