Dover Construction provides earthwork and site preparation services for residential, commercial, and public works projects throughout Northern Nevada. As a family-owned and operated contractor serving the region since 1989, we bring decades of experience, dependable equipment, and practical field knowledge to every job.
Our capabilities include excavation, mass grading, building pads, demolition, land clearing, trenching, import and export hauling, and complete site development. Whether preparing undeveloped land for new construction or modifying an existing property, our team focuses on creating a safe, accurate, and dependable foundation for the work that follows.
Every property has different terrain, soil conditions, access limitations, elevations, and construction requirements. We carefully review the project plans and site conditions before completing the work efficiently and according to the approved scope.
Excavation and grading establish the shape, elevations, and functionality of a construction site. Dover Construction provides excavation and mass grading for projects of varying sizes and site conditions throughout Northern Nevada.
Our crews move and shape soil according to approved plans while considering building areas, underground utilities, drainage, concrete, and other planned improvements. Modern GPS machine-control technology helps us work with greater accuracy and maintain the elevations required for the next phase of construction.
From initial excavation to finish grading, we coordinate our work with property owners, general contractors, engineers, inspectors, and other trades to help keep the project moving.
A properly prepared building pad creates a dependable starting point for construction. Dover Construction provides building pad preparation for residential, commercial, and public works projects.
The process may include clearing, excavation, grading, material placement, and compaction based on the site plans and project requirements. Our team pays close attention to elevations and surrounding site conditions so the completed pad works with the property’s utilities, drainage, access, and other improvements.
By combining building pad preparation with related earthwork and site development services, we can help reduce unnecessary handoffs between contractors and improve coordination during the early stages of construction.
Before new construction can begin, existing structures, materials, vegetation, or other site obstructions may need to be removed. Dover Construction provides demolition and land clearing to prepare properties for development and improvement.
Our team evaluates the work area, site access, nearby improvements, and material-handling requirements before beginning. We remove the items included in the approved scope and prepare the area for excavation, grading, utilities, or other upcoming work.
Because demolition and clearing affect the rest of the project, we coordinate these services carefully to create a cleaner and more workable site for the construction phases that follow.
Dover Construction provides trenching for water lines, sewer lines, storm drain systems, septic systems, and utility tie-ins. Accurate trenching is essential to achieving the required depth, placement, and alignment for underground infrastructure.
Our crews coordinate trench excavation with the project plans and the contractors or representatives responsible for the utility work. After installation, we can provide backfilling and compaction within the approved scope.
Our broader underground utility capabilities also allow us to install and repair water and sewer lines and complete storm drain, septic, and utility tie-in projects through the same experienced team.
Site development often requires material to be brought onto a property or removed from it. Dover Construction provides import and export hauling to support excavation, grading, demolition, building pad preparation, and other construction activities.
Import hauling can supply the material needed to establish grades, prepare building areas, or complete other approved improvements. Export hauling removes excess soil, demolition debris, and other project materials that cannot remain onsite.
Coordinating hauling with earthwork helps keep the site organized and ensures materials are available or removed when needed.
Preparing a property for construction often involves more than one service. Dover Construction can coordinate excavation, grading, building pads, demolition, clearing, trenching, hauling, underground utilities, drainage, concrete flatwork, site concrete, asphalt removal and preparation, saw cutting, and core drilling.
Managing related services through one experienced contractor can improve communication and reduce delays between different stages of site development. Our team works closely with project representatives to understand the schedule, resolve field conditions, and complete each phase with attention to safety and quality.
Dover Construction is licensed, bonded, and insured. We approach every residential, commercial, and public works project with honest communication, experienced crews, modern equipment, and a commitment to dependable workmanship.
