Excavation & Site Work services in Universal City

Universal City grew up beside Randolph Field, now Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph, and most of its homes went up in the decades after World War II. The city sits on rolling ground between Cibolo Creek and the edge of the prairie, with dark clay soils, some caliche and patches of gravelly terrace near the creek. Older streets have smaller lots, mature trees and aging sewer lines; newer areas to the north have bigger lots and sloping yards. Cibolo Creek floods hard in heavy storms, and yards that slope toward it lose soil unless runoff is slowed. Typical Universal City jobs for us are sewer lateral trenches, drainage fixes, slab and driveway removal, retaining wall cuts on sloped lots, and pads for carports and sheds.
