Excavation & Grading
GPS machine-control grading for Conway building pads, parking lots, roads and driveways — cut, fill and compaction to plan.
Excavation · Sitework · Utilities — Conway & Faulkner County
Conway is the fastest-growing city in Arkansas — and growth starts in the dirt. Cox Earthworks brings GPS grading, utilities, rock work, and hauling to Faulkner County commercial and residential jobs, backed by fifty years and a licensed commercial crew out of Heber Springs.
Faulkner County dirt work
Conway has been Arkansas's fastest-growing city two years running — north of 74,000 people, inside a Faulkner County that's pushed past 130,000. Every new subdivision, medical office, retail pad, and industrial building in that boom starts the same way: somebody has to cut the grade, run the utilities, and get the site pad-ready.
That's the work Cox Earthworks has done for fifty years. With major employers like Westrock Coffee's 570,000-square-foot plant, the University of Central Arkansas, and Conway Regional anchoring the city, Faulkner County keeps a steady pipeline of commercial and residential sitework — and we bring the iron, the license, and the ground sense to handle it.
We're a Heber Springs outfit, about an hour up the road, and we've hauled our own equipment to jobs across central Arkansas for decades. For Conway work, mobilization is priced into the bid up front — you see the number before we roll a truck. And when you call, a member of the Cox family answers, not a call center.
