Subgrade Preparation Matters

HB Construction follows a methodical process on every site:

• Site Evaluation — We assess existing soil conditions, moisture content, and bearing capacity to determine what your project requires.
• Excavation & Cut/Fill Balancing — We cut high areas and fill low ones, working to balance earthwork on-site where possible to reduce material hauling costs.
• Unsuitable Soil Removal — Soft spots, organic material, and unstable soils are excavated and replaced with proper structural fill.
• Structural Fill Placement & Compaction — Fill is placed in controlled lifts and compacted to meet specified density requirements — tested and verified.
• Fine Grading — We bring the subgrade to precise elevation tolerances, ensuring proper slope and drainage across the site.
• Utility Trench Coordination — We coordinate subgrade work around utility installations so everything is sequenced efficiently.
