Min order 1 tons

Status In stock

Thornton has grown rapidly across what was largely agricultural land north of Denver, and a lot of the newer subdivisions still need their grade corrected before finish landscaping goes in. Farmed ground does not always drain the way a finished residential lot needs it to, and low spots that hold water after a storm have to be built up rather than worked around. Unscreened fill dirt is the economical way to establish that elevation, with finish material following once the levels are right.

Once the ground is settled, the work turns to the usual new-build needs. Driveways and parking areas want a compacted base of crushed run base material to hold up against Colorado’s expansive clay, and fresh lawns typically need premium screened topsoil to get established over the compacted subsoil construction tends to leave behind. We deliver to new subdivisions, established homes, and commercial sites throughout the city.

Answers to Your Frequently Asked Questions

My new lot has low spots that hold water. What fixes that?
Raising the low ground with bulk fill before finish material goes on, in most cases. Former agricultural land does not always drain the way a residential lot needs to, and fill dirt is the economical way to establish the correct elevation. Getting the levels checked before ordering material helps you buy roughly the right volume.
Colorado’s expansive clay can look solid when dry and behave very differently once it takes on moisture through a wet spring. A compacted base layer gives the surface something stable to bear on regardless of how the clay underneath is behaving that season, which is why it is standard practice even on lots that seem firm at delivery.
Likely, yes. Construction typically leaves compacted subsoil at the surface once the original topsoil has been stripped, and grass struggles to root through that. Working screened topsoil in before seeding or laying sod addresses the underlying cause rather than the symptom.
Yes, along with Federal Heights and the wider Adams County area. If your address falls outside those areas, dispatch can check supplier coverage for you.
Let dispatch know the date material needs to be on site and delivery can be scheduled around it. Should the build timeline shift, giving us 24 hours’ notice ahead of the slot lets the delivery be moved without a fee.
