What we do in Chesterfield

We self-perform the heavy civil scope that gets Chesterfield sites pad-ready — every phase coordinated by one team, one schedule, one accountable contractor.

01.

Preconstruction Services in Chesterfield

Getting in early makes all the difference. We partner with general contractors, civil engineers, and developers during design — not after bid day. Using AGTEK 2D cut/fill takeoffs and 3D earthwork models, drone-flown topo verification, and HCSS HeavyBid estimating built on real production data, we help shape smarter, more cost-efficient sites: balanced mass grading, minimized export, rock identified early, and utility routes value-engineered before they're drawn in stone.

  • Value engineering & constructability review
  • AGTEK 2D cut/fill takeoffs & site balancing
  • 3D earthwork modeling & visualization
  • Drone topo & existing-grade verification
  • HCSS HeavyBid estimating with real production data
  • Mass grading optimization & haul-off reduction
