Curb, Stone and Asphalt

Fine grading, stone base, curb and gutter, and asphalt. The finish work that turns a graded site into streets people drive on.

Overview

Finishing a site right takes just as much focus as breaking ground.

Our fine grading crews and trusted trade partners deliver clean, durable curb, sidewalk, and asphalt work that stands the test of time.

We understand local standards and requirements and work closely with inspectors to ensure the highest-quality roads, helping us get proof rolls approved quickly and keeping the paving process smooth from start to finish.

Because we are already on the site running the grading, the utilities, and the trucking, the road section never waits on a mobilization. Stone shows up when the subgrade is ready, and paving follows the schedule instead of chasing it.

The Road Section

From subgrade to final lift

Every step below happens on the same site, with the same team, under the same schedule.

01

Fine Grading

Subgrade cut to line and grade, proof rolled and undercut where it needs it, before a single stone goes down.

02

Stone Base

Aggregate base hauled with our own trucks, spread, and compacted to the thickness the section calls for.

03

Inspections

We know local standards and work with inspectors directly, which is how proof rolls get approved and stay approved.

04

Curb, Gutter & Sidewalk

Concrete curb, gutter, valley gutter, and sidewalk placed clean and straight with trusted trade partners.

05

Asphalt Paving

Base and surface lifts placed and rolled, including roadway widening and offsite DOT tie-ins.

06

Turnover

Punch list, cleanup, and handoff so the road is ready for vertical construction and, eventually, for the town.

Our Own Trucking

Stone arrives when the subgrade is ready

We run our own fleet of trucks, which means base stone is not a phone call to a hauler and a two-day wait. It is a dispatch decision we make ourselves, on the same site, the same morning.

That control is the difference between a road section that keeps pace with the rest of the job and one that holds it up.

Quality

Proof rolls approved the first time

A failed proof roll costs days and credibility. We build the subgrade to hold, walk it with the inspector, and fix problems before they are inspection findings.

Local standards, local inspectors, and a crew that has done it across the Triangle and Eastern North Carolina for years.

Featured Project

Magnolia Forest

A 57-acre KB Home development for 154 homes, with massive roadway widening and infrastructure improvements to support future traffic demand, including curb, gutter, asphalt, and offsite DOT tie-ins.

Our crews carried Magnolia from raw dirt through mass grading and 26,500 LF of utilities, then straight into the road section without a gap between phases.
