Exterior Demo & Building Pads FAQs
What is a certified building pad?
A certified building pad is a site that has been graded, compacted, and density-tested to meet the specifications needed before construction begins. Shane’s Grading and Paving prepares building pads by grading the site, checking material density, and leveling it for construction.
What does a paving contractor do?
A paving contractor prepares, grades, and surfaces driveways, parking lots, and roadways with asphalt or concrete, and maintains those surfaces over time. Shane’s Grading and Paving handles the full range — grading, paving, sealcoating, asphalt maintenance, building pad preparation, exterior demolition, and retention basins — for both residential and commercial properties in the Phoenix, AZ area.
What’s the difference between paving and grading?
Grading shapes and levels the ground so it drains correctly and provides a stable base. Paving is the surfacing work that goes on top of that graded base — asphalt or concrete. Most paving projects need both, in that order.
What areas does Shane’s Grading and Paving serve?
Shane’s Grading and Paving is based in Phoenix and serves residential and commercial clients throughout Arizona, with regular work in Phoenix, Maricopa, Flagstaff, Prescott, Tucson, and Payson.
