Civil Site Development

Your Trusted Full Civil Site Development Partner

Full Civil Site Development

Before the first building goes up, the land needs to be fully prepared. Ironclad’s civil site development services transforms raw land into a build-ready site with the right grades, drainage, utilities, and surface features. It includes excavation, utility installation, stormwater systems, paving, and more.

When this step is properly handled, it prevents costly delays, unexpected problems, and compliance issues. Ironclad Engineering handles the complete process efficiently, thoroughly, and always to code, so that your project can move forward without a hitch.

What’s Included in Our Full Civil Site Development Service

Here’s what you can expect when you hire Ironclad Engineering:

Site Evaluation & Planning

We start by assessing your property’s existing utilities, soil stability, grading, and potential obstacles. This early-phase planning helps us avoid costly surprises and gives you a clear roadmap to a successful build.

Land Clearing & Earthwork

We handle all site clearing and heavy earthwork, including vegetation removal, excavation, backfill, and compaction. We create a stable foundation so your entire structure rests on solid ground, both literally and structurally.

Site Grading & Drainage

Water management in Florida is critical. We design and implement site grading and stormwater systems that protect your investment. Whether it’s swales, retention ponds, or drainage pipes, we ensure your property drains properly and meets all environmental and city regulations.

Underground Utilities & Infrastructure

We’re licensed and insured to install essential underground systems, including water, sewer, drainage, and fire lines. Whether it’s a new commercial development or infrastructure upgrades for an existing property, we coordinate every step of the process, including trenching, pipe installation, testing, and certification.

Land Clearing & EarthworkAsphalt Paving, Concrete Curbing & Hardscape

From roads and driveways to curbs and sidewalks, we handle all paving and hardscape features. We use durable materials, modern equipment, and sharp craftsmanship to deliver a clean, professional finish.

Restoration & Final Touches

Once the infrastructure and surface work are complete, we’ll restore any areas that were damaged and add the finishing touches. That includes final grading, cleanup, and preparation  for landscaping or vertical construction.
