About the company

Who you're hiring

Short answer

3H Construction LLC is a land clearing, excavation and site preparation contractor based in Richards, TX across Grimes County, TX, Walker County, TX and Brazos County, TX. Call (979) 571-8110 to talk through a project.

3H Construction LLC is a dirt-work contractor based in Richards, in Grimes County. Owner Ricky Haynie has done this kind of work since around 2016 and formed the LLC in 2019, and the crew brings more than 35 years of combined experience. They clear land, excavate and grade, build house pads and ponds, put in gravel driveways and culverts, handle demolition and build pipe fence, which is where the business started.

They work for private landowners building homes or cleaning up overgrown acreage and for developers bringing parcels to market, across Grimes, Walker, Brazos, Montgomery and neighboring counties and out toward Spring, Tomball and The Woodlands. They run their own equipment rather than subcontracting, and they prefer to walk the property before quoting so the estimate reflects the actual ground. Note that they do not offer forestry mulching; their clearing removes trees, brush and debris outright.

  • Clearing through to finished gradeThey can clear a tract and move straight into grading, site prep or a house pad, so one crew handles the ground from raw land to ready-to-build.
  • Their own crew and machines3H brings its own equipment and does the work itself instead of handing jobs to subcontractors.
  • Quotes based on a site visitThey like to see the property first, since terrain, soil and access drive the cost, and they will say so if the land isn't suited to the plan.
  • Residential and developer workJobs range from a single home pad or stock pond to grading multi-acre parcels for developers.
