Site Development, Land Clearing, Grading, Earthwork, Excavation

When it comes to land clearing, grading, and preparing your site for construction, there are several different methods. Do you know which one is best for your Central Florida project? What rules and regulations does your project need to adhere to when it comes to water runoff, land clearing, or stormwater distribution? Will your project need specific equipment? What about utilities, are there existing lines underground and will you need lines dug? Where do you start? 

Most often than not, it is time and cost that most commercial and residential projects look at when they choose a company to prepare your property. 

Having the right equipment is the quickest and most cost effective way to get the job done right. Sure, you can go in and bulldoze trees and bushes over, but that doesn’t kill them and you are left with uneven soil. They can also easily damage trees you want to save. For this a skid-steer tractor with hydraulic shears is needed. 

Next the property will need to be graded, removing underbrush, plants, and rocks. This process prepares the property for buildings, parking lots, streets, driveways, playgrounds, and storm drains. The equipment needed are skid loader and backhoes

Silt fencing may be necessary, this is when a geotextile fabric is used as a temporary barrier. This prevents erosion during site clearing phase of the project, it also prevents waste and debris from reaching other properties. Unfortunately, they are susceptible to breaking down due to weather and needs maintenance.

So, whee do you start? By contacting Swell Construction. Our leadership and experience through all the phases of site development means the highest quality at a cost effective cost.

Kissimmee Construction Site Development; Cost Effective Land Grading

Excavation, land grading, proper drainage, are all things that should come to mind when you start construction on a piece of property. Whether it is a large subdivision, business or a single family home, properly preparing your site is an important step. 

Why is Land Grading so Important?

Land grading ensures the ground is reshaped to the planned grades. Proper drainage is imperative for any property in Florida, of which land grading plays an important role. It also helps control sedimentation, soil erosion, and surface runoff. 

A solid foundation is essential for a successful project

Water is prevalent here in Central Florida. Costly damages happen when water doesn’t drain properly. Cracks and structural impairments can result when the property isn’t properly graded. Water should never be allowed to pool around the foundation. Proper grading also discourages erosion of the land. 

Set the Tone for the Rest of the Project

Whether it is new construction or an existing building, having a plan established by a professional ensures your project won’t have problems in the future. When your grading is properly performed it addresses a ‘buffer zone’ of vegetation, current regulations, and backfill around the foundation.  If not, erosion, foundation and moisture issues, termites, and even legal problems can develop.

Orlando/Kissimmee Excavation & Site Development

A solid foundation starts with a quality construction site development. In the past decade, there has been a dramatic call for eco-friendly construction practices here in Central Florida. At Swell Construction we believe that starts before construction begins. We are committed to reducing the negative impact site development has on the environment.

Sustainability 

Construction sites throughout the country are in the habit of producing a significant amount of waste. Sustainability should be a higher propriety, from recycling waste to focusing on decreasing energy costs.

Often times, everything is just tossed into a large trash bin and it ends up in the local landfill, but it doesn’t have to be this way. Green practices also include warm mix asphalt and stormwater management services.

Construction World talks about how to Implement Eco-Friendly Construction Strategies and  Improve Demolition Practices

“Rather than dumping more materials like concrete and structural steel into landfills, these can be recycled for other construction jobs. Industrial crushing facilities recycle these materials into dry aggregate for new construction. Additionally, even carpet, flooring and ceiling materials can be reused in a variety of ways. Any chance a contractor has to use recycled material, it often means a substantial savings opportunity. By using recycled and sustainable materials, construction companies will be able to avoid additional costs associated with the disposal of toxic materials from the site.”

Equipment Management

Efficient equipment, conserving energy, and taking proper conservation measures, adds up to a cost savings for everyone, reducing the carbon footprint of the project is very attractive to the new owners. 

Focus On Safety 

Implementing the highest safety procedures throughout the construction phase. Taking into account a small incident can set back the time frame and add to the final cost.”To avoid accidents, you need to make sure that all of your workers know about potentially hazardous areas, of these potential issues, and have the tools and training they need to stay safe while working on your job site – especially when operating heavy equipment”
