Earth Retention & Excavation Support
When a basement, underpass, or utility excavation goes deeper than the ground will stand on its own, we install the systems that hold it back. Our drilling background makes us efficient at the drilled elements at the heart of most retention systems in Texas soils.
One Sub for the Whole Below-Grade Package
Retention work rarely travels alone. The same project usually needs drilled shafts or auger cast piles once the hole is open — and because we self-perform all of it, sequencing stays inside one company instead of bouncing between subs. We serve general contractors and civil primes across East Texas and the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, from our Henderson County base near Athens.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you design the shoring system or just install it?
We install engineered systems. Design typically comes from your geotechnical or specialty engineer; we price and build to those drawings, and we're glad to do constructability reviews during pricing to flag anything that will fight the ground.
Are tieback anchors tested?
Yes — anchors are proof-tested (and performance-tested where specified) against the design load with jack and gauge, with results documented for the engineer of record.
How close to an existing building can you shore an excavation?
Soldier pile and tieback systems exist precisely for zero-lot-line conditions. With a proper design, excavation support can run directly along a property line or an existing foundation. Vibration-sensitive neighbors are a reason to use drilled — rather than driven — elements, which is what we do.
