Grading, roads, and underground in Paradise
The Ridge is still rebuilding, and it is rebuilding on a different set of rules than what was there before: new sewer where there were septic systems, driveways that a fire engine can turn around on, and defensible clearances that get inspected.
Ridge lots are sloped, tree-covered, and often reached by a single narrow road. That means small machines, hand work at the edges, and a haul plan made before anything drives up there. It also means drainage matters more than anywhere else we work: a burn-scar watershed sends water and debris downhill fast, and a culvert that was adequate in 2017 is not now.

Everywhere we workParadise questions
Yes: slab and foundation removal, lot clearing, pads, driveways that meet the access standard, and the sewer connection where the new system reaches your street. Tell us the plan check comments and we will build to them.
Send a photo of the entrance and the first turn. If a transfer will not make it, a 10-wheeler usually will, and if that will not either we shuttle with a smaller truck from a staging spot. It is a cost, not a refusal.
