What We Do in Lake Butler

Site Prep & Dirt Work for
Union County Farms & Homesites

Union County is farm and timber country. Whether you're building a new home, fixing a long farm driveway, or getting a pasture corner ready for a barn, JGH brings the equipment and does the dirt work right.

01 — Site Prep
Site Prep & House Pads

Lot clearing, rough grading, and compacted house pads built to your builder's spec for Lake Butler new construction. Fill placed and compacted in lifts so the pad doesn't settle.

02 — Dirt Work
Fill Dirt, Grading & Earthmoving

Fill dirt delivered, spread, and compacted. Lot grading, drainage correction, pond digging, and general earthmoving for Union County properties.

03 — Driveways
Limerock Driveways & Culverts

Long rural driveways are a Lake Butler specialty — new installs, regrades, culvert setting, and washout repair. We restored a 1,200-foot limerock driveway right in town.

04 — Land Clearing
Land Clearing & Woods Openings

Full lot clearing or selective woods openings that leave your mature timber standing. Brush, stumps, and understory cleaned out with our own track equipment.

Common Issues in Lake Butler

Problems We Solve on
Union County Properties

Union County's farm land, long private drives, and thick timber create their own set of problems. We've worked them all — often within a few miles of the Lake Butler square.

Farm Driveways That Wash Out Every Rainy Season

Long rural driveways lose their crown after a few Florida rainy seasons, and water starts cutting channels instead of shedding to the sides. We regrade, rebuild the limerock base where it's thin, and set culverts so the water goes where it should.

House Pads on Farm & Pasture Land

Building on pasture means stripping organic topsoil first — a pad built on it will settle. We strip to solid ground, bring in clean fill, compact it in lifts, and grade to the elevation your builder needs.

Timber So Thick You Can't Use the Land

Mature pine and hardwood tracts around Lake Butler often have understory so choked you can't walk them. We open the woods up — clearing brush and undergrowth while leaving the standing timber — so the land is usable again.
