House Pad Construction in Palestine, TX
At West’s Services Dozer & Construction LLC, we know a quality house pad isn’t just the first step in construction — it’s the most important. Serving Palestine, TX and the surrounding region, we specialize in building strong, properly graded house pads that set the stage for homes, shops, barns, and all types of permanent structures. Our approach combines proven techniques, local soil knowledge, and top-tier equipment to ensure a stable foundation every time.
No matter the size or purpose of your building, we tailor each house pad to match the specific layout, drainage requirements, and load-bearing demands of your project. We don’t just move dirt — we build reliability into your build.
What Is a House Pad and Why It Matters
A house pad is more than just a level patch of dirt. It’s a carefully planned, compacted, and graded surface designed to provide a strong, erosion-resistant base for structures. A poorly constructed pad can lead to shifting foundations, water intrusion, cracking slabs, or premature damage to the building above it.
Our Step-by-Step Pad Building Process
Every project starts with a plan — and we don’t break ground until we understand your property’s unique needs. Our team follows a thorough, proven process to ensure results that last.
Site Evaluation Services
We evaluate your land’s topography, drainage behavior, and soil condition before any equipment is moved. This helps us design a pad that works with your site — not against it.
Excavation and Soil Conditioning
If there’s organic matter or weak material beneath the surface, we remove it. We then fill and condition the site with the appropriate base material, building up in compacted lifts for long-term strength.
Precision Grading and Compaction
Using lasers and grading tools, we shape the pad for a perfectly level surface or to meet engineered slopes. Every layer is compacted to reduce future settling or movement.
Final Site Prep
Once complete, we verify pad height, slope, and compaction. If requested, we can also prep adjacent space for driveways, culverts, or additional pads.
