Lakefront property clearing with view of Lake LBJ

309 Antler Run for Bandit Homes

October 14, 2024 - Kingsland, TX

Our Antler Run project in Kingsland, Texas demonstrates our ability to handle technically challenging site work in sensitive environments. Located on beautiful Lake LBJ, this project required precise execution in tight quarters with multiple coordination points.

Site Challenge Assessment

The lakefront project presented several unique challenges that showcased our problem-solving capabilities:

  • Limited Access: The construction site was situated between existing homes and Lake LBJ, creating extremely tight working conditions that required careful equipment selection and operation.
  • Precision Grading Requirements: The site demanded exact grading specifications to ensure proper drainage away from the foundation while maintaining appropriate relationship to adjacent properties and the lake.
  • Multi-Contractor Coordination: We worked alongside other contractors in confined spaces, requiring careful scheduling and communication to ensure efficient project progress.
  • Environmental Considerations: Working near Lake LBJ meant implementing strict erosion control measures to protect the lake from construction runoff.

Our Solution

Our approach to this challenging project included:

  • Specialized Equipment Usage: We selected compact yet powerful machinery specifically suited for the limited access conditions, allowing us to perform necessary work without damaging adjacent properties.
  • Precise Grading Implementation: Our engineering background enabled us to execute the grading plan with extreme precision, establishing the correct elevations for the foundation pad while ensuring proper water management.
  • Collaborative Scheduling: We maintained open communication with other contractors on site, coordinating our activities to maximize efficiency despite the space constraints.
  • Thorough Site Cleanup: Upon completion of the rough grading, we performed comprehensive site cleanup to prepare for subsequent construction phases.

Engineering Expertise Advantage

This project highlights the advantage of having a licensed Professional Engineer leading our construction team. The technical challenges of working in tight quarters on environmentally sensitive lakefront property required both engineering knowledge and practical construction experience. Our unique combination of these skills allowed us to successfully complete this project on schedule despite the difficult conditions.

The Antler Run project demonstrates our versatility in handling site work across various environments, from expansive ranch properties to confined lakefront lots. Our commitment to quality execution remains consistent regardless of project scale or complexity.
