Full list of services
Dirt work, and everything that goes with it.
For nearly fifty years Texas builders, developers and landowners have used KGW for the part of the job that happens before anything gets built. Here is the whole scope, in one place.
Scope of work
Everything we do.
Ten services under one contractor, with our own crews and our own equipment. Most jobs use several of them, which is the point: one mobilisation, one schedule, one number.
Clearing and grubbing
Trees, brush and stumps removed, roots pulled, and the site left clean and ready to grade.
Small lots to large acreage
Leveling and excavation
Cut, fill and grade to plan, on ground that runs from sand to Gulf Coast clay.
Residential and commercial sites
Site preparation and building pads
Structural pads built to elevation and compacted so the slab that follows sits on ground that will hold.
Built to engineered elevation
Soil compaction and stabilization
Ground that will not hold made into ground that will, by compaction or by mixing something into it.
Subgrades, pads and haul roads
Home building pads
Pads for custom builders and tract homebuilders, drained so the finished house stays out of standing water.
Single lots and full sections
Culvert installation
Driveway and roadside culverts set on grade so water leaves the property the way it is supposed to.
Driveway and roadside
Pond and lake construction
Retention basins, stock ponds and lakes, dug, shaped and keyed so they hold water and hold their banks.
Retention basins to lakes
Demolition
Structures, slabs, pools and foundations taken down and hauled off, leaving a clean lot behind.
Structural and horizontal
Asphalt roads and parking lots
Base, grade and asphalt for drives, private roads and parking areas that take truck traffic.
Drives, roads, parking
Concrete driveways
Tear-out and pour for driveways and approaches, formed, reinforced and finished.
Tear-out and pourHow a job runs
No surprises between the quote and the handover.
Walk the site
We meet you on the lot, look at access, drainage and what is actually in the ground, and talk through what the job needs.
Price the work
A written quote against a defined scope, so you know what is included and what would be extra before anything starts.
Move dirt
Our own crews and our own equipment. One schedule, and one number to call if something on your end changes.
Hand it over
Cleared, cut to grade, compacted and draining, ready for the next trade to start.

Two ways in, depending on how far along you are. Either one reaches the office in Crosby, not a call centre.
