Concrete & Foundation
Work in West Memphis, AR
Slab prep, footing trenches, house pads, pier holes, and basement excavation — for residential and commercial projects throughout the Memphis metro and Eastern Arkansas.
The Ground Work Before
the Concrete Sets
A foundation is only as good as what sits under it. We handle all the excavation that prepares the ground for concrete — from digging footings to compacting the slab subgrade. Builders and homeowners call us when they need the site ready before the concrete crew arrives.
Slab Subgrade Preparation
Pouring a concrete slab and need the ground compacted and ready?
We scarify, level, and compact the subgrade to engineered density. Clay, sandy loam, or fill — we get it compacted in lifts so the slab won't settle or crack later.
Footing Trench Excavation
Strip footings or continuous footings need digging to proper depth and width?
We cut and shape footer trenches to your engineer's specifications — width, depth, and grade all matter. Clean, accurate trenches mean the concrete crew can place steel and pour without surprises.
House Pad Construction
Building a home and need a level, engineered house pad?
We cut and fill to the grade specified by your engineer or surveyor, compact in lifts, and proof-roll to confirm the pad will hold the slab without movement. Code-compliant, inspector-ready.
Pier & Caisson Excavation
Need holes dug for drilled piers or concrete caissons?
We excavate pier holes to specified depth and diameter — whether it's a standard reinforced concrete pier or a large caisson. Bottom cleanout and proper depth verification included.
Basement Excavation
Building a full basement and need the hole dug to spec?
We handle complete basement excavations — walls, floors, proper backfill around the foundation once the concrete is in. Experienced with both poured wall and block wall basements.
Stem Wall & Grade Beam
Stem wall or grade beam foundation that needs precise trenching?
We cut the stem wall trenches to exact grade and width, prepare the sub-base, and leave everything ready for the rebar and concrete crew. Tight tolerances on slope and depth.
Foundation Prep for
Residential & Commercial Builds
This West Memphis residential project needed full site prep before the foundation crew arrived — house pad cut to grade, footer trenches dug, and the entire build area proof-rolled and compacted. We coordinated with the builder so the concrete crew arrived to find a site that was exactly to spec. Foundation passed inspection without a single callback.
The difference between a slab that holds up for 30 years and one that cracks in five is what happens before the concrete truck arrives. We don't skip the compaction passes.
