The ground in Clarkdale

Near the old Clarkdale townsite what is under the surface is not always what you would guess, with slag, fill, and old foundations buried in the clay, so we excavate the tank and field carefully and set the system to the ground we actually find.

Clarkdale is a historic Verde Valley town below Jerome, a smelter town laid out a century ago that still holds its grid and its old bones. The lots here include tight in-town parcels on the original streets and newer ground on the slopes above the Verde River, and the ground carries a lot of history under the surface.

The soil is Verde Valley clay and caliche over basalt, and around the old townsite the ground can hold buried slag, foundations, and fill from the smelter era. The Verde River and its terraces shape drainage across the lower ground, while the slopes above bring grade and shallow rock. What is under a Clarkdale lot is not always what the surface suggests.

On ground that may hide old fill, slag, or a forgotten foundation, and clay that moves with water, an owner needs a licensed contractor who will dig it, read it, and build the pad honest. Guessing on a historic townsite lot is how you find a surprise after the slab is poured.

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.
