We were making preparation to demolish Tommy's home so that DTH could build the family's new home. Tommy asked Daniel if he could be the operator and take down his house with the excavator. Way to go Tommy!

Brenham — common questions

What does dirt work in Brenham usually involve?
Most jobs are one of a few things: cutting and filling to get a site to grade, building a pad for a house or a shop, putting in a driveway or an access road, or fixing where water sits. What decides the cost is how much material has to move and whether it can be balanced on site or hauled, which is what the site visit establishes.
Do I need a permit to burn cleared brush in Brenham?
Often yes, and it changes with the weather. Outdoor burning is regulated statewide and Washington County can add a burn ban on top of that during dry spells, so the answer in June may not be the answer in October. Check the county's current status before anything is lit. It is also avoidable: forestry mulching grinds the material into the ground where it falls, so there is no pile to burn and no debris to haul, which is often why owners choose it.
How soon can you get equipment to Brenham?
The equipment yard is near Magnolia and we work within roughly a 100-mile radius of Houston, so Brenham is inside the normal service area rather than a special trip — that keeps mobilisation shorter and cheaper than bringing iron in from further out. Timing depends on the season and what is already scheduled; the site visit is where we commit to a window rather than guessing at one over the phone.

Before work starts in Brenham

Any construction that disturbs an acre or more falls under the state construction stormwater permit, which makes erosion and sediment controls a legal requirement on the site rather than an optional extra. You can read the current rules straight from TCEQ construction stormwater permit, and we confirm what applies to your property during the site visit rather than guessing at it from an address.
