Everything you build sits on the pad.
A pad that's not compacted right, not high enough, or not shaped to shed water will cause trouble for as long as the building stands. It's the cheapest part to get right and the most expensive part to fix later.
We build pads for manufactured and mobile homes, site-built houses, shops, barns and commercial buildings, sized and shaped for the structure going on top.
What's included
- Manufactured home padsBuilt for the home's footprint and setup.
- Mobile home padsIncluding replacement homes on existing sites.
- House padsFor slab or pier-and-beam construction.
- Shop & barn padsMetal buildings, barndominiums, ag buildings.
- Commercial padsLarger footprints for commercial structures.
- Pad drainageShaped and sloped so water runs off, not under.

What affects the price
Every property is different, so we price after we've seen it. These are the things that move the number.
- Pad sizeFootprint plus working room around it.
- Pad heightLow ground means more fill to bring it up.
- Fill & baseSelect fill and base material hauled in.
- ClearingWhether the site needs clearing first.
- AccessA way in for the home delivery or concrete trucks.
Manufactured home going in? Call before the home is ordered.
Your home dealer or installer will have requirements for the site, like pad size, height and how close a truck needs to get. Getting the pad and access planned before delivery day avoids the classic problem of a home sitting on a trailer because the site isn't ready.
We'll work with your installer's specs and can handle the clearing, pad, driveway and utility trenching as one job.
