Keep reading to learn some key information you need to know about the apartment site preparation process before you get started.
- Land Clearing – It should come as no surprise that the first step in apartment site preparation is clearing the land of trees, shrubs, rock formations, etc. You need a flat, level stretch of ground on which to build your apartment complex, and our team is here to provide it. We will clear and flatten the land to get it ready for the rest of the construction process.
- Land Grading – Another essential step in apartment site preparation is land grading. This step involves analyzing how water will flow over the property and then using earth movers and other tools to adjust the slope of the ground to ensure water always flows away from the buildings. If you neglect this step, water will flow towards your buildings, pooling around the foundations and potentially causing serious water damage, so our team always checks our work thoroughly to make sure your buildings will be safe.
- Sewer & Water Line Connection – A third key part of apartment site preparation is making sure the buildings can connect to the local water and sewer lines. Our team will do all that’s necessary to connect your new buildings to these important utilities—we’ll locate the local water and sewer grids, then excavate trenches and install the pipelines to connect your buildings to them.
