Overview

The front end of every project.

Sitework is where schedules are won or lost. If the dirt is not right, nothing after it goes right either, and everybody downstream pays for it.

Macomb Contracting is ZCI’s self-performing sitework division. We own our equipment and run our own crews, which means we are not waiting on a subcontractor’s availability to start your job, and we are not passing along somebody else’s markup.

We work directly for general contractors, developers, industrial and commercial owners, municipalities, and property managers, on projects ranging from a single parking lot to full site development.

  • Owned fleet, no rental delays
  • In-house operators and laborers
  • Fully insured, bonding capacity available
  • MIOSHA-compliant safety program
  • Soil erosion permits handled
  • Documented, clean job sites

    Site preparation

    Clearing, stripping, stump removal, erosion control, stone base, and pad preparation ready for the next trade.

Process

How the job runs.

  1. Site walk and takeoff

    We walk the site, review soils and survey data, and price from actual conditions rather than an optimistic assumption about what is under the surface.

  2. Permits and erosion control

    Demolition permits, utility disconnects, soil erosion and sedimentation control permits, and municipal coordination handled before mobilization.

  3. Mobilization

    Our equipment, our operators, on the date we committed to. Site fenced, protected, and set up for safe access.

  4. Execution

    Daily progress, grade checks and compaction testing as required, and a superintendent who communicates before problems become delays.

  5. Turnover

    Site left to grade, compacted, documented, and ready for the next trade to start immediately.

Selected work

Sitework across Metro Detroit.

We work for general contractors who need a sitework partner that shows up, and for owners who would rather deal with one company from the dirt through the roof.
