Rock Crushing, Demolition and Residential Road Construction in Lake Purgatory Durango CO
Lake Purgatory - Summer 2016
Photos from a job in Lake Purgatory during the summer of 2016. We crushed shot rock for gravel on an approximate 1200 ft. long road to the site after blasting and the excavation of a home site. Two sizes of rock were crushed for this project (3” minus and 1” minus).
This job really put our new rock breaking and crushing equipment to the test. Thankfully, it passed with flying colors! It was a great project for us.
Residential Foundation Excavation and Rock Wall Construction in Durango, CO
The Houston Project (Glacier Club) - Fall, 2016
The Houston Residence project was one we completed the fall of 2016 at the Glacier Club. During this project, we processed the structural fill material to prepare for concrete slab construction, removal, excavation, backfill, and rock wall installation.
The client wanted to take advantage of the setting and the majestic backdrop of the pines while preserving as many as possible. We were pleased to do the work needed with precision, and we're looking forward to seeing the finished home on this gorgeous piece of land.

McGraw Job (Glacier Club) - Summer, 2017
In these photos, we are working on a project at the Glacier Club. In order to finish the foundation's excavation, we needed to use a hydraulic breaker attachment and hammer out benches and switchbacks through solid bedrock!
This job was exciting and challenging for us, and was a great achievement once completed. You can learn more about this project on our Project Notes Blog.
Hard Rock Excavation
North County Colorado - Winter, 2020
Here is a recent project we are undertaking. It is for a new residence in north county. The project required hard rock excavation. We had to break rock starting from the road, through the driveway, and all the way to the back of the garage (through as much as 12 vertical feet in some places). Then we had to break rock to reach sub grade in the walk-out basement. We will have to crush the spoils to make suitable backfill and gravel for things like slab prep.
We kept as much as possible on the site but still had to export almost 40 loads of spoils because the site wasn’t large enough to accommodate the spoils stockpile and allow work to continue.
