What Makes Us Different

The right dirt is the heart of any solid dirt work project. Whether you’re making a house pad, pond, or driveway, you need a team that understands the type of soil each project needs.

We always start by removing all topsoil and grass before construction begins. Grass will decay over time, and topsoil doesn’t compact properly, so our team never skips this essential step.

Compaction is just as important as soil selection. We use a compaction roller on all projects, and we add soil in 8”–12” lifts to ensure every layer is tightly packed.

We know what’s riding on the dirt beneath your project, and we make sure it’s built to last.

House Pads in Longview, TX

Your house needs a solid foundation, and that starts with the right dirt work. Our proven process makes a strong, stable house pad that’ll support you for years to come.

Grass & Topsoil Removal: We start by clearing away grass and topsoil, which prevents future settling and foundation movement.
Red Clay Installation: Red clay compacts exceptionally well and creates a strong base. We source it locally to lower costs, either from your land or through trusted area suppliers.
Layered Dirt Placement: The pad is built in compacted lifts of 8–12 inches. Each layer is compacted with a drum roller to prevent shifting over time.
Laser Grading & Drainage: With a laser transit, we finish with precise grading to ensure your pad is level and drains properly, protecting your future foundation.

Pond Construction in Longview, TX

A pond is only as good as the dirt work behind it. If it's not built correctly, leaks and drainage problems will follow. Frontier Land Works builds reliable, long-lasting ponds for properties in Longview using proven methods and quality clay.

Keyway Construction: We dig a keyway beneath the dam site and pack it with red clay to prevent seepage. Natural soil alone won’t hold water effectively.
Topsoil & Grass Removal: We strip out the topsoil and vegetation before shaping the pond. This keeps organic matter from weakening the dam structure.
Clay Lining: For sandy or rocky areas, we line the entire pond basin with red clay to help retain water and prevent erosion.

We’ve fine-tuned our approach to pond building to give you a structure that performs well and lasts for years.

Driveways & Parking Lots in Longview, TX

If your driveway or parking lot isn’t built on solid ground, it won’t last. We deliver high-quality dirt work and gravel installation that stands up to weather and regular use, whether it’s for your home, ranch, or business.

Site Grading & Drainage: We create the correct slope and add drainage features like culverts and ditches to move water away.
Grass & Topsoil Removal: These soft layers get stripped out to ensure long-term stability.
Low Spot Correction: We fill and grade low spots, then compact the soil to prevent erosion and settling.
Gravel & Road Base Application: We apply your choice of crushed concrete, limestone, or asphalt as a base, finishing with grading and compacting for a smooth surface.

We partner with local gravel suppliers around Longview to source affordable, high-quality materials for your specific needs.
