Clean excavation, stable fills, and clear haul tracking. In Chalmette, the first conversation is usually about access, drainage, and how St. Bernard Parish conditions change the work.
When a Chalmette site needs excavation, import fill, or spoils moved, the job is scoped in yards and tickets, not guesses. Low-elevation silts and clays near the marsh edge with fill history on many residential blocks. On Chalmette coastal cuts, water tables and sandy spoils can change depth limits midday.
Cut-and-fill balance is tracked daily when export or import changes the St. Bernard Parish haul picture. We bench cuts, protect utilities, and keep trench walls stable while work is open in Chalmette.
When haul distance shifts the production rate, we say so before mobilization, not after ticket pileup. Subgrade is left ready for the next trade, whether that is concrete, pipe, or a final grade pass.

Josh has handled several projects for us. He built a rock road in our backyard for our boat, and we didn't have to think twice about it. He handled everything from start to finish and the work was excellent. We also had a swimming pool removed, which left our backyard a mess. Josh brought in dirt, regraded the area, and it looks amazing now. We liked his work so much we had him put in a brand new lawn for my mother, including scraping out the old lawn, laying new sod, and installing an irrigation system. Her lawn looks incredible. Josh is efficient, professional, and fairly priced.
