San Marcos Elite Grading & Excavation Free Estimates in San Marcos, TX
San Marcos Elite Grading & Excavation provides free on-site estimates for residential and commercial grading, excavation, site preparation, and drainage correction projects throughout Hays, Caldwell, and Guadalupe counties. Every quote starts with a site visit — Central Texas soil conditions, existing drainage patterns, and site access all affect project scope in ways that cannot be assessed remotely.
Phone estimates without a site assessment are not accurate on Central Texas terrain. We provide written, fixed-price quotes after the site visit at no charge and with no obligation.

How the Estimate Process Works
Step 1 — Submit Your Request/Give us a Call
Fill out the form on this page or call us directly. Provide a brief description of your project — lot size, what you're trying to accomplish, and whether you're working on a new construction project or an existing property with a drainage or grading issue.
Step 2 — We Schedule a Site Visit
We contact you within one business day to schedule a site visit at a time that works for you. The site visit typically takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on lot size and project complexity. We assess existing grades, soil conditions, drainage patterns, and site access during the visit.
Step 3 — You Receive a Written Quote
Within 48 hours of the site visit, you receive a written, fixed-price quote covering the full project scope — equipment, labor, materials, and any permit coordination required. No line items added after the fact. No phone estimates revised upward once we arrive on site.
Frequently Asked Questions About Getting an Estimate
How long does it take to get a quote after the site visit?
Written quotes are delivered within 48 hours of the site visit in most cases. Large commercial projects or projects requiring civil engineering input may take three to five business days.
Do you charge for the site visit or estimate?
No. Site visits and written quotes are provided at no charge and with no obligation.
What areas do you serve?
Our primary service area covers Hays, Caldwell, and Guadalupe counties — including San Marcos, Kyle, Buda, Wimberley, New Braunfels, Dripping Springs, Lockhart, Seguin, Luling, Uhland, and Martindale. Projects outside this area are evaluated individually.
Can you work directly with my builder or general contractor?
Yes. We routinely coordinate directly with custom home builders, framing superintendents, and general contractors on new construction projects. Provide your builder's contact information when you submit your request and we will loop them into the estimate process from the start.
Do you handle permit coordination?
Yes. We identify permit requirements during the site visit and coordinate applications with the City of San Marcos Development Services Department or Hays County Precinct offices as applicable. Permit fees are passed through to the client at cost with no markup.
