What We Do for Private Property Owners
CONSERVATION PONDS & TANKS
Water retention structures built to NRCS pond specifications — properly lined, dammed, and spillway-equipped.
TERRACE CONSTRUCTION
Grassed waterways, contour terraces, and diversion terraces to manage slope runoff and prevent soil loss.
EROSION CONTROL STRUCTURES
Grade stabilization, waterways, and erosion control earthwork to arrest gully erosion and sheet erosion on problem sites.
PASTURE & RANGELAND RECLAMATION
Restoration of degraded pasture and rangeland, including invasive species removal, tillage, and reseeding prep.
WATERSHED RESTORATION
Earthwork to restore natural drainage patterns, reduce runoff velocity, and improve water infiltration on disturbed land.
STREAMBANK STABILIZATION
Earthwork support for streambank protection and channel stabilization on eroding creek banks.
If you're enrolled in an NRCS cost-share program (EQIP or similar) that includes earthwork practices such as pond construction, terraces, waterways, or water retention structures — we can provide the contractor services required to implement those practices. We work from NRCS-provided practice standards and construction specifications, and we understand the documentation requirements these programs involve.
Note: Landowners should confirm contractor eligibility requirements with their local NRCS service center before finalizing any cost-share arrangement. We recommend having a conversation with us and your local NRCS office early in the planning process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Erosion control is one of our specialties in the Central Texas region. We evaluate your site, identify the source and pattern of erosion, and recommend the right combination of earthwork solutions — which may include grade stabilization, waterways, or pond and retention structures to slow and capture runoff.
-
We work on projects of all scales — from a single erosion-control pond on a small acreage to comprehensive watershed restoration work on a large ranch. The work gets the same attention to detail regardless of size.
