Expert Site Grading in Calaveras County, CA

Site grading is the foundation of every successful build. Herring Paving Company handles site grading for residential lots, commercial pads, driveways, and rural acreage across Calaveras, Amador, San Joaquin, and Stanislaus counties. We cut and fill soil to create a stable, level surface before any paving, construction, or drainage work begins. Soil conditions vary widely across this region. Calaveras County soils range from deep alluvial deposits in the west to rocky outcroppings with high erosion hazard in the foothills. San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties carry consolidated parent materials along the valley's eastern edge. Amador County terrain adds steep rural grades and drainage challenges. We read each site before we move a single yard of material. Our crews establish proper slope, direct water away from structures, and compact fill to the density your project requires. If you have a pad to prep, a lot to clear, or a driveway to regrade, call Herring Paving Company to get your site ready the right way.

They were so kind and responsive! My driveway turned out amazing, and I cannot thank the crew enough for how clean and wonderful they made this job look. The best paving company to go to in mercer county!

10/10 They sealed my blacktop a week ago and did a great job, my driveway is cracking and they gave very helpful recommendations also. They were so professional and such honest individuals we will most likely be having them back to completely redo it at some point. Their crew was also very personable in addition to the Davano’s themselves, will always be happy to have them back for any work possible.

I recently hired Davano Paving to do some work on my driveway and I couldn't be happier with the results. The team was on time, professional, and did an excellent job. The quality of the work was top-notch and the finished product looks fantastic. I highly recommend Davano Paving to anyone in the area in need of paving services.
