Why Malakoff projects are different.
Malakoff is the southwest side of Cedar Creek Lake. Malakoff has heavy expansive clay that swells and cracks slabs when it's not drained right — sub-base and drainage matter more than the concrete itself.
We roll trucks from Mabank into Malakoff multiple times a week — cedar creek lake is our backyard. One local crew, one point of contact, and the same equipment we use on every job from a homeowner french drain to a full barndominium build.
Full grading scope.

- Lot leveling — rough & finish grade
- Land clearing & brush removal
- Culvert install & driveway approaches

Grading materials we install on every Malakoff, TX job.
Every Malakoff, TX grading job starts with the right base under the dirt. Because Henderson County soils swing between sandy loam and expansive clay, the difference between a pad that lasts and one that cracks is spec'd here — not at the truck.
- TxDOT Item 247 flex base
Our standard cap on every Malakoff pad and driveway — meets state DOT spec and compacts to a stable, drainable surface.
- Crushed limestone base rock
Sourced from quarries near Malakoff so haul cost stays low and delivery windows stay tight.
- Select fill dirt
Placed in 6" lifts and proctor-compacted — the only fill we'll put under a Malakoff slab or building pad.
- Screened topsoil
Screened clean for Malakoff yard regrades, landscape beds and post-grading turf establishment.
- 18", 24", 36" culvert pipe
HDPE with concrete flared end sections — sized to actual watershed on your Malakoff lot, not a guess.
- Non-woven geotextile fabric
Real Mirafi 140N under every fill lift — separates Malakoff clay from imported base so the two don't mix and pump.
Sourced from suppliers serving Malakoff and Henderson County so material delivery never bottlenecks your project.
