Site Stakeout & Preparation
Precision is crucial when preparing a construction site, and our team at Martin Construction has the expertise to get it right. We begin by precisely staking out the boundaries, elevations, and key reference points for your project. Using advanced surveying equipment and techniques, we create an detailed map of the site that serves as the foundation for all subsequent excavation and construction work. Our meticulous site preparation ensures that your foundation, utilities, and other critical elements are properly located and aligned from the very start. By taking the time to thoroughly stake out and prepare your site, we set the stage for a smoother, more efficient building process that stays true to your plans.
Laser Elevations
Accurate elevation data is essential for effective site grading, drainage, and structural placement. That's why Martin Construction relies on state-of-the-art laser technology to meticulously map the contours and elevations across your project site. Our specialized laser equipment can quickly and precisely measure most terrain, providing us with a highly detailed 3D model of the existing conditions. Armed with this valuable data, we can then develop an optimized grading plan that accounts for proper drainage, minimizes cut-and-fill requirements, and ensures your new structures are positioned at the ideal elevations. This laser-guided approach allows us to execute grading work with a level of accuracy that is simply unattainable through traditional surveying methods alone.
Land Clearing & Grading
Preparing a construction site often begins with clearing the land and grading the terrain to your specifications. At Martin Construction, we have the equipment, expertise, and experience to handle all your land clearing and site grading needs. Our skilled operators use heavy machinery like bulldozers, excavators, and graders to efficiently remove trees, brush, and other obstacles, leaving you with a clean, level canvas for your building project. From there, we meticulously grade the land, sculpting the contours to align with your construction plans. Whether you require expansive clearing for a new development or precision grading around an existing structure, our team has the capabilities to get the job done right. We prioritize environmental sensitivity, erosion control, and safety in all our land preparation work.
Basement Excavation
Preparing a proper foundation is crucial for the structural integrity of any building, which is why Martin Construction approaches basement excavation with the utmost care and precision. Our experienced team uses advanced surveying techniques and specialized equipment to carefully excavate the exact dimensions required for your basement, ensuring a stable, level base for your new structure. We take great pains to evaluate soil conditions, identify potential groundwater issues, and account for any underground utilities or obstructions. This meticulous approach allows us to create a solid, dependable foundation that will support your building for years to come. Whether you're constructing a new home, a commercial facility, or an industrial complex, you can trust Martin Construction to expertly handle all your basement excavation needs.
Building Pads
A sturdy, level building pad is the foundation for any successful construction project. At Martin Construction, we use our extensive excavation expertise to create custom building pads tailored to the unique requirements of your site and structure. Our team begins by carefully assessing soil conditions, examining existing grades, and identifying any potential challenges or obstructions. Armed with this detailed site analysis, we then utilize specialized equipment like bulldozers, graders, and compactors to sculpt the land, removing unsuitable materials and compacting the soil to create a stable, level pad. We take great care to ensure proper drainage and prepare the pad for the next phase of construction, whether that's pouring a concrete foundation or erecting a post-frame building. With Martin Construction handling your building pad excavation, you can have confidence in a solid, dependable base for your new structure.
