Built to Last on Your Property

Residential contracting for homes and acreage properties in Amarillo

When you're planning improvements to your home or land in Amarillo, you need a contractor who understands how Panhandle soil behaves, how drainage should be routed around your property, and how to coordinate multiple phases without leaving work half-finished. Lace Construction works with homeowners across Amarillo on driveways, retaining walls, excavation, and site work that ties together as one cohesive project rather than a patchwork of separate tasks.

This service handles the outdoor construction work that supports your property's function and longevity. You get crews and equipment sized appropriately for residential jobs, whether that means a graded driveway on a quarter-acre lot or drainage solutions across several acres. The team is familiar with clay-heavy soils, seasonal weather shifts, and the planning required to avoid erosion or standing water after the work is done.

If you're ready to discuss what your property needs and how long the work will take, reach out to start that conversation.

What to Expect When You Book

You'll start with a walkthrough of your property in Amarillo where the scope is discussed in detail. This includes identifying grade issues, drainage paths, access points, and any obstacles that need removal or adjustment. Equipment is brought in based on the size and complexity of the job, and timelines are set with room for weather delays common in this region.

After the work is completed, you'll notice water drains away from structures as intended, driveways sit level and compacted, and retaining walls hold soil in place without shifting. Lace Construction coordinates each phase so that one part of the project doesn't undo another. Clear project communication means you're updated as conditions change or adjustments are needed.

The service does not include interior remodeling or roofing work. It focuses on exterior construction that improves how your property functions and weathers over time. Final grading, compaction, and drainage routing are completed before the crew leaves, and you're walked through what was done and why it was sequenced that way.

Key Benefits of This Service

Homeowners in Amarillo often have questions about timing, equipment access, and what happens when soil conditions don't cooperate. These answers address the practical concerns that come up before work begins.

What types of residential projects does this service cover?
It covers driveways, retaining walls, excavation for utilities or foundations, drainage systems, and site grading. Multiple elements can be handled within the same project timeline.
How long does a typical residential project take?
Small jobs like a graded driveway may take two to three days, while larger acreage work with excavation and drainage can run one to two weeks depending on soil conditions and weather.
What happens if heavy rain delays the project?
Work pauses until the site is safe and soil is workable again. Compaction and grading done in saturated conditions won't hold up long-term, so delays protect the quality of the finished work.
Why does Panhandle soil require specific attention?
Clay-heavy soil in Amarillo expands when wet and contracts when dry, which affects grading, compaction, and drainage design. The crew adjusts techniques based on current moisture levels and seasonal patterns.
What should I prepare before the crew arrives?
Mark any underground utilities, clear the work area of vehicles or obstacles, and ensure equipment can access the site. You'll be notified if additional prep is needed after the initial walkthrough.

Residential projects in Amarillo work best when the contractor understands local conditions and sequences the work to avoid rework. If you're planning improvements to your home or land, contact the team to review what you need and how it should be built.
