Excavation & Site Work services in Schertz

Schertz stretches along Interstate 35 and FM 3009 northeast of San Antonio, on gently rolling Blackland ground. The soil is mostly dark, heavy clay that cracks in a hot, dry summer and closes up again with fall rain, which keeps slabs and sidewalks moving. Cibolo Creek forms the city's eastern edge, and lots that back onto its tributaries need grading that slows runoff instead of sending it straight down the bank. Most homes were built from the 1980s on, many in quick-growing subdivisions where the builder's grade left back yards nearly flat. Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph sits just west, and its neighbors include older homes with longer lots. In Schertz we do regrading and swales for wet yards, slab-edge drainage, pool and patio digs, trenches for water and electric lines, and pad prep for sheds and garages.
