Base Pad Construction Services

The Foundation Before the Foundation

A base pad is a compacted, level surface made of soil, gravel, or crushed limestone that provides structural support and prevents shifting, cracking, or drainage issues. It’s essential for elevating structures and distributing weight evenly.

When Do You Need a Base Pad?

Installing a mobile or modular home
Placing propane tanks, water tanks, or backup generators
Replacing uneven or cracked existing pads
Building a shop, garage, barn, or metal building
When local codes require elevated or compacted foundations

We don’t just build base pads—we also cut in new driveways, private ranch roads, and utility access paths that stand up to the elements. Whether it’s gravel, crushed limestone, or road base, we use the right materials to match your land and your needs.
