Salt Lake County · Point of the Mountain
Excavation, Grading & Sitework — Draper, UT
Draper sits at the Point of the Mountain, where the Traverse range pinches the valley — the same geology that made this a sand and gravel district for a century. Ground here is generally granular and workable, but the east bench climbing toward Corner Canyon gets steep fast, and steep means cut/fill, retaining, and drainage done properly. Draper is Salt Lake County, so permitting and inspection run differently than our Utah County work, and we're set up for both.
Sitework built for Draper
Point of the Mountain ground
Sand and gravel deposits dig and compact well — but granular soil still needs correct moisture and lift thickness to hit engineered density.
Steep east benches
Lots climbing toward Corner Canyon need engineered cut/fill and retaining, plus drainage that moves water away from structures.
Commercial redevelopment
Draper's corridor redevelopment means demo, utility tie-ins, and pad work on constrained sites next to occupied buildings.
What we focus on here: Commercial sitework, bench grading, retaining walls, underground utilities, and concrete across Draper and the Point of the Mountain.
Draper FAQs
Do you work in Salt Lake County as well as Utah County?
Yes. Draper and the Point of the Mountain are regular work for us. We hold Utah E100 General Engineering and B100 General Building licenses, which cover us statewide.
Can you handle steep hillside lots in Draper?
Yes — the east bench toward Corner Canyon is exactly the kind of terrain our retaining wall and cut/fill work is built for. The key is engineering the wall and the drainage together.
