Professional site preparation with a residential focus.
Site work is where projects go right or wrong. Here’s how we make sure yours goes right.
Protect your investment.
Settling, erosion, and water problems almost always trace back to site prep that was skipped or rushed. Proper excavation, drainage, grading, and compaction prevent these issues and the expensive repairs that follow.
Preserve your property.
Our compact, capable equipment is chosen for residential work. We get into tight backyards, work carefully around what you’ve built, and limit unnecessary damage to lawns and surrounding landscaping.
Make the process easier.
You get clear communication, a practical plan, a detailed estimate, and a crew that respects your property. Working with a contractor shouldn’t feel like a gamble.
Hands-on knowledge, practical solutions.
Our owner, Brandin Maxwell, brings years of construction, equipment operation and project management experience to your project.
Our team can look at your property and quickly evaluate access, slope, drainage, soil, and materials and how the site will actually be used for years to come. Then we explain it, so you understand exactly what your project needs and why.
Our name is attached to every project.

“Can’t say enough about Brandin and his crew at Maxterra. We had two large gravel shed pads installed in the backyard. The crew worked like a fine tuned machine. We would highly recommend Maxterra for this type of work. We could not be happier.”

“They did a great job! Here on time, put in a 16 x 24 foot pad for a shed. Leveled the ground, put a treated wood border with rebar to anchor it, laid barrier material, then filled with limestone and compacted. Cleaned up. Great job!”

“Brandin and his crew were punctual and professional throughout the entire process. They poured a shed base, tore out an old paver patio and replaced it with a new stamped concrete patio in less than a week. Everything came out great and they made everything painless. I would/will recommend them for any excavating and concrete work I hear of.”
