Culvert Installation in Pecos, TX

Culverts sized and set to actually carry the water, not just look installed.

Culvert Installation is one of the most-requested services Rangefinder Excavation provides around Pecos, TX. Well pad construction and drainage/erosion control lead our Pecos-area work, reflecting the region's oilfield activity and flash-flood-prone terrain.

A culvert that's too small, set at the wrong grade, or backfilled wrong will wash out the first time water really moves. Rangefinder Excavation installs culverts across the Permian Basin for driveways, ranch roads, and road crossings — concrete and metal, single and twin runs, sized to the drainage they're actually handling.

Almost no rain most of the year, then a storm that moves more water in an hour than the ground sees in months; erosion control is what keeps a new pad from becoming a repair job.
