Serving the Community Since 1992

We at Shilling Excavation are honored to serve our Central Texas community with outstanding excavation, dirt work services, and other land management needs.

Constructing a well-built road or driveway needs the right amount of know-how and extensive experience. With over 28 years of excavating and land management experience, Shilling Excavation is your local road and driveway contractors ready to serve your needs.

As experts in the industry, we always follow the best practices for road and driveway installation.

Our professional team has the know-how and equipment to allow for an efficient drainage system for all road or driveway installation projects.

With our services, you don’t have to deal with a poor drainage system or risk deteriorating the driveway surface. 

Our experienced road and driveway construction team knows how to properly direct water away from the driveway surface and keep it off. 

We’ll make sure not to let water build up and cause any damage.

Our experience and expertise allow us to plan for the best possible time and weather conditions to start a road and driveway construction project.

To ensure a job well done, we take moisture level and outside temperature into account when planning for the ideal installation date.

We also make sure to do precise sub-grade preparation before starting the road or driveway installation. 

The sub-grade serves as the primary support for the new driveway. That’s why it’s crucial to maintain a smooth, firm, and leveled surface.

Our expert team will contour the sub-grade in your property to make sure it matches the layout of the driveway construction. We carefully plan for sub-grade installation by considering ideal weather conditions.

Trust our expertise to ensure the best possible surface for a safe and high-quality driveway.

The most crucial component of a road and driveway installation is a well-built and robust foundation or base.

As land management experts, we pull out all the stops to complete a successful road and driveway installation project. No matter what your specifications are, we do our utmost to provide the highest quality work that exceeds your expectations.

Our approach to road and driveway installation is similar to house pad construction. Upon a complete evaluation of your location, our experts will set a plan for the project to ensure that the land is cleared and adequately leveled.

• A comprehensive inspection of the site
• Site preparation
• Thorough land clearing
• Land grading
• Proper drainage system
• Erosion control

At Shilling Excavation, one of our important jobs is dirt road leveling. In our over three decades of dirt road maintenance experience, we always make sure to complete the following objectives:
• Sufficient water flow control around the dirt road
• Elimination of all obstructions on the road
• Proper dirt road leveling

When you want to maintain your dirt road properly, remember that water (or any of its form – ice, snow, sleet) is not your friend. Our experts know the techniques to properly slope the road and allow for proper water drainage and prevent it from flowing back onto the dirt road.

When there are any obstacles that you need off the road to make the space open and functional again, call us. We have a top-of-the-line fleet operated by our experienced team. We do all land clearing work safely, effectively, and promptly.

When it comes to efficient dirt road leveling, it’s all about equipment and know-how. Depending on your needs, our experienced team knows what leveling solutions to apply for your dirt road.

Before we begin any gravel road installation, we’ll make sure to understand your needs for it. 

Farming vehicles with massive horsepower and size, for instance, are not suitable on gravel roadways if the surface is not strong enough.

We’ll carefully analyze your needs and the frequency of traffic the road will get so that we can plan your gravel road installation appropriately.

A strong and well-built foundation is crucial to any construction project – whether it’s residential, commercial, roads, or driveway construction.

At Shilling Excavation, our expert contractors will ensure that you have a strong and leveled sub-grade to build your road or driveway on.

If your property has unavoidable weaker or wet soil, we’ll do the appropriate excavation process to replace it. 

If the roadway is too wide, we’ll bring in the right materials to raise it. 

Whatever challenges or issues your gravel road construction project may present, our expertise and experience allow us to come up with solutions that work.

We have the highest quality gravel to use for your project. Whether it’s for base material or surface use, you’re getting the top-grade materials when you partner with us.

This may seem like a simple and straightforward step. However, only experienced gravel road contractors know how to start the project and finish it right.

With our tried-and-tested techniques and know-how, we’ll provide you with a functional and cost-effective and easily maintained gravel road – and not a weak type that needs frequent and costly repairs.
