The Dirt Contractor Gilbert Builders Trust
Gilbert is Building Fast — Your Dirt Sub Needs to Keep Up
Gilbert has been one of the fastest-growing cities in the country, and the construction pace hasn't slowed. New home communities, infill builds, custom lots off Higley and Ray corridors — the East Valley is busy, and schedules are tight. The last thing any builder or homeowner needs is a dirt contractor who disappears after the contract is signed.
R² Contracting runs every job like the owner is on site — because Chandler is. No layers of management. No hand-off to a crew you've never met. When you call, you talk to the operator. That means faster decisions, fewer surprises, and a job that actually gets done when we said it would.
Site Grading Done Right for Gilbert's Soil Conditions
Gilbert sits on a mix of caliche-heavy soils and sandy fill — and both have to be handled correctly. Caliche needs to be cut properly or it'll cause drainage and compaction issues down the road. Sandy fill has to be placed in lifts and compacted to spec or your pad will settle. We've worked throughout the East Valley long enough to know what the soil is going to do, and we engineer our work accordingly.
Whether you're putting in a new home pad, prepping a pool excavation, or fixing grading that the last contractor got wrong — we know Gilbert's ground and we know how to move it.
Drainage Solutions for Gilbert Homeowners
Standing water on your Gilbert property after a monsoon isn't just annoying — it's a sign of a drainage problem that won't fix itself. Most Gilbert drainage issues come from improper lot grading, low spots that weren't addressed during construction, or HOA-mandated drainage that wasn't installed correctly. We assess, design, and build the fix — whether that's a swale, a retention area, re-grading, or a combination approach.
We've solved drainage problems in Gilbert, Mesa, and Chandler that other contractors walked away from. Call us and tell us what you're seeing — we'll get eyes on it and give you a straight answer.
