Working Ozark's ground
Ozark straddles the Finley River valley, which makes for beautiful lots, and real drainage and erosion challenges when stormwater comes off the hills. The bluffs and slopes south of town demand proper grading before anything gets built.
In Ozark we regularly handle riverside-lot drainage work, hillside cuts and retaining support, land clearing along Highway 14, and site prep for new homes and shops in the fast-growing east side.
