Scope

Selective clearing and grubbing, Construction entrance and gravel access, Foundation pad grading

The Project

Turning a Wooded Lot into a Build-Ready Pad

The residential site started with slope, tree cover, and access constraints that had to be solved before foundation work could begin.

Benson handled clearing, staking support, cut and fill, gravel access, and foundation pad preparation with compact equipment suited to the lot.

The finished handoff gave the builder a stable pad, reliable access, and a cleaner path into the next phase of construction.
