Earth Basics is a general and heavy civil engineering contractor with 30 years of experience in residential and commercial industrial projects. As a family owned and operated company, our team is committed to changing the earth moving industry through California and Texas.
Our team has the ability to work directly with developers, owners and general contractors, and our experience, company assets, and technological advancements allow us to deliver unparalleled performance. We continually strive to maintain strong relationships and constantly improve our processes. Over the years, we have seen almost every challenge imaginable, making us the perfect choice as an earthwork contractor in the following areas:




Earthwork Services
Commercial & Industrial
Earth Basics has managed more than 100 million square feet of earthwork ventures which include warehouses, retail centers, office complexes, food processing plants, manufacturing facilities, and more. Extensive in-house resources enable Earth Basics to tailor their services to meet and exceed their client’s needs and project objectives. We efficiently coordinates our earthwork, focusing on time, cost & quality to guarantee results. Each project is unique, varying in scope, requiring customized designs, approaches, and applications. A systematic yet adaptable project management program is key for project success. By paying close attention to detail, quality is raised while simultaneously controlling costs.

Levees & Flood Control
Over the past decade, the Western US has seen the opposite end of the weather spectrum. The drought and the following weather systems that followed have changed our landscapes, damaged pre-existing infrastructure and cause millions in damage. Levees and flood control built before the drought may not be ready for the next waves of winter weather we have recently witnessed. In foresight flood control and storm water control has become a recent addition to our capabilities for all industries. This was natural to move for us, as we already offer civil engineering services, technology services, and equipment to perform this type of work, which is typically needed on very short notice.

Land Clearing & Demo
Structure demolition, boulder removal, uprooting trees and vegetation. If you got it, Earth Basics can clear it out. Our unique earthwork experience in the business allows us to ‘value engineer’ the project, while planning and scheduling to account for all project obstacles from the start. Depending on your needs, Earth Basics can centralize the process and assume responsibility for everything from conceptual development through the design and construction. We know what works best, and can quickly and efficiently perform.


Golf Courses
The key feature of the world’s greatest golf courses is their grounds. Our expert crews and a specialized fleet of heavy equipment provide premium earthworks, excavation, and land clearing services to achieve even the most complicated elements of course design. From ground zero to C of O we do it all. Our estimating department uses cutting edge technology to produce accurate takeoffs and 3D modeling. With GPS Machine and Grade Control technology, ensuring we save your time and money on your project by getting it done faster, with incredible accuracy, and with minimal surveying costs to the property owner.
Public Works
Governments exist to protect the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens. America’s public works systems are part of the framework for that existence. Earth Basics infrastructure design can provide roads for safe travel, utilities for clean water, parks for recreation, and storm water management for protection against flooding. The quality of these infrastructure systems (roads, water distribution, wastewater collection, and storm drainage), impact the perception of the area and reflect its reputation. These types of projects have always been a great fit for the Earth Basics team.


Housing Tracts
Building a track home community is a large undertaking and land planning feet. Without the proper earthworks team, your project can be delayed or even worse encounter costly problems down the road. Our team at Earth Basics takes pride in our attention to detail with land development and controlled earthwork. Many subcontractors continuously praise and hope to start their work behind the earthwork's execution of work done on the preliminary subdivision plans, subdivision plat, and general grading.
01
Site Balancing
We specialize in this essential process that ensures a level foundation for construction by redistributing soil across a site, optimizing the land for subsequent developments.
02
Excavation
Our excavator operators are pros at removing earth from sites to prepare the ground for construction. No matter how difficult the excavation project might be, we can handle it.
03
Mass Grading
The Earth Basics team excels when it comes to large-scale leveling and grading of a site. This process ensures the entire terrain is uniformly contoured for large developments.
04
Moisture Conditioning
We have extensive experience optimizing soil properties by adjusting its moisture content, ensuring it's compacted to the right consistency for optimal strength and stability.
05
3D Site Modeling
Reduces cost, improves efficiency, increases speed of construction, increases productivity with each move, creates clear visualizations of future work, and integrates aerial imagery with on-site machinery.
06
Land Clearing
Trust us with the removal of vegetation, rocks, concrete and other obstacles from your site to prepare it for construction.
07
Erosion Control
We implement measures to prevent soil erosion, ensuring the stability and longevity of the land. This is particularly important for sites exposed to heavy wind or water flow.
08
General Engineering
Comprehensive oversight and planning of earthwork projects, ensuring all aspects of the job are executed with precision, safety, and to the highest standards.
