Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What permits are needed for excavation and demolition work in North Texas?
A: Permit requirements vary by municipality and project scope. Demolition permits are required throughout North Texas when removing structures, with requirements varying by city. Many municipalities require asbestos inspections before demolishing buildings constructed before 1980. Grading permits may be required for significant earth-moving work, particularly in flood-prone areas or developments with drainage concerns. Some cities require erosion control plans and silt fencing for disturbed areas. If work involves city right-of-way or easements, additional permits are typically needed. We coordinate all permit requirements based on your project location and scope, ensuring compliance with local regulations. Our familiarity with municipalities throughout the DFW Metroplex, Sherman/Denison area, and Southern Oklahoma helps expedite the permit process.
Q: How much does site preparation typically cost?
A: Site preparation costs in North Texas vary widely based on existing conditions and scope of work. General guidelines include: Land clearing (brush and trees) runs $1,500-$5,000 per acre depending on density. Grading for a residential building pad typically costs $2,000-$8,000 depending on lot size and terrain. Foundation excavation for a typical home runs $3,000-$10,000. Demolition of a residential structure ranges from $8,000-$25,000+ depending on size, materials, and disposal requirements. Concrete removal costs $3-$8 per square foot including disposal. Several factors can significantly impact costs: rocky soil conditions requiring special equipment, poor drainage requiring additional earthwork, restricted access requiring smaller equipment, and material hauling distances. We provide detailed estimates after site evaluation so you understand exactly what's involved and what it will cost.
Q: What should I do about utility lines before excavation begins?
A: Before any excavation work, utility lines must be properly identified and marked. Call 811 at least 48 hours before digging to have public utilities (gas, electric, water, sewer, cable, phone) marked for free. However, 811 only covers public utilities; private lines on your property (like irrigation systems, propane tanks, private water wells, septic systems, or privately-owned electric lines) are your responsibility to identify. We recommend having a private utility locating service mark any private infrastructure before excavation begins. If you're unsure what private utilities exist on your property, previous owners or your utility providers may have records. Hitting an unmarked line can result in costly repairs, project delays, service interruptions, and safety hazards. NTEX coordinates utility locates as part of our site preparation process and takes extra precautions when working near marked utilities.
