Ector County
Excavation & Dirt Work Contractor in Goldsmith, TX
Goldsmith is a small town sitting in the middle of one of the older producing areas in Ector County, and most of the dirt work around it is oilfield work — lease roads, location pads, tank battery pads and the caliche it takes to keep them usable.
Rangefinder Excavation runs that kind of work out of Midland regularly. The haul is longer than a town job, and we price it honestly rather than pretending the miles are not there.
Local Note
Lease roads, well pads and tank battery pads make up most of our Goldsmith-area work, alongside road maintenance on existing locations.
- Ground conditions
- Caliche and sandy ground across the west side of Ector County, with blow sand in places that has to be worked into a base rather than paved over.
- Water & drainage
- Runoff is rare and heavy when it comes, so lease roads and pads need crown and a place for water to leave before the first real storm finds the weak spot.
- Getting there
- SH-866 and Ector County roads carry the haul routes; most locations sit off private lease roads past that.
- Permits
- TxDOT's Odessa district covers state-highway access; Ector County Road & Bridge handles county-road approaches and culverts.
