Rickabaugh Construction is a heavy civil construction company for Terrebonne, Oregon, specializing in project planning, management, earthworks, and underground utilities for large-scale civil projects such as road building, water tower installation, and subdivision development.
The best answer: our people. People define our business from the ground up, as demonstrated in our core values. It’s something you can see from the way that we treat our clients to the caliber of people that we hire to work with us.
Heavy civil construction in Terrebonne is the way in which we improve the lives of those who work for us and for whom we work. Building great people is the purpose that drives us to excellence, and is what our core values are all focused upon.
One of the benefits of doing business according to the principle of building great people is that our clients don’t have to deal with many of the problems that come along with doing the work just to “get the job done.” We don’t necessarily set out to solve these problems – it comes naturally from who we are as a company.
Rickabaugh Construction provides the expert services you would expect from a heavy civil construction company with more than two decades of experience in Terrebonne.
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 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.
Our team has the bulldozers, graders, loaders, excavators, and other equipment needed to clear any site of the old to make way for the new. With our highly trained team behind the wheel, any area will be ready for new construction in short order.
Our Terrebonne earthworks equipment operators are some of the best at what they do, from the first pass to the final sloping of the ground.
To make our work more cost-effective and more rapidly done for our clients, our equipment uses TopCon technology, which ensures our work matches the plans we’ve developed in collaboration with our Terrebonne clients.
Depending on the slope, retaining walls may need to be built before other construction can start (e.g. in a subdivision built on a hill). Through our knowledge of material specifications, and soils of all kinds in Terrebonne, our team can engineer and build retaining walls to meet the needs of any large-scale construction project.
Rickabaugh Construction has over 20 years’ experience in Terrebonne installing the large-diameter pipes and basins needed for a well-functioning sewer or storm drainage system in subdivisions and large commercial complexes.
Whether your Terrebonne civil construction project will require a water tower, high-pressure water mains, or another potable water storage and delivery option, we will get the right kind of pipe from the warehouse to the ground where it’s needed.
We have the people, equipment, and experience to install large areas of underground conduit, or create trenches for any kind of underground utilities you may need such as electrical, fiber optic, and natural gas.
One of the basic – but nevertheless vital – requirements for a heavy civil construction contractor is that the people managing a project have the Terrebonne relationships, authority, and expertise to keep it on-time and on-budget. Which is exactly what you will find to be the case with Rickabaugh Construction’s project managers, who work closely with the people on the ground – and spend plenty of time out there themselves – to make sure that time and resources are stewarded well, which means according to plan.
For those aspects of a job we need to contract out, we use subcontractors that we have an excellent relationship with and who we know share our values of service and building great people first. Our project managers take the responsibility for every one of our subcontractors on-site, providing them with what they need to get their part of the work completed up to and above standards.
Our project managers make a concerted effort – which many of our clients have noticed – to communicate regularly and often with our clients to keep them in the loop about their project. Not only that, we invite the collaboration and oversight of all our clients in the planning and construction process. We take great pride in being the Terrebonne heavy civil construction company that is easy for anyone to work with.
