Estimating Deschutes River Woods Heavy Civil Construction Projects

Pre-Project Planning

From simply analyzing what can be done with a piece of land, to coming up with a preliminary budget of what it would cost to build a new road, subdivision, or other public or private work on the land, to preparing a complete and competitive bid on the project, the team at Rickabaugh Construction can handle it.

Turnkey Site Development

Turnkey site development means that we not only do the work of constructing the final product on a piece of land, but that team is also responsible for the design, as well. Our engineers and planners work with our builders and clients to ensure that the final product is a first-rate example of value engineering.
