Asphalt Paving in Fort Stockton, TX

Pavement is only as good as what's under it — and that part is ours.

Rangefinder Excavation provides asphalt paving throughout Fort Stockton, TX and Pecos County. Ranch road building and culvert installation are our most frequent Fort Stockton-area projects, tied to both ranching operations and oilfield access needs.

Almost every failed parking lot in the Permian Basin failed from underneath. The mat gets blamed, but the real culprit is a subgrade that was never compacted, a base that was too thin, or water with nowhere to go. Rangefinder Excavation approaches asphalt from the dirt up, because the dirt is what decides whether the pavement lasts five years or fifteen.
