Norman, OK Site Work FAQs

Does 365 Excavation work in Norman, OK?

Yes. Norman is a short drive south of our Moore yard on I-35. I-35 and SH-9 put most Norman sites within a short haul of our Moore yard.

What is the ground like for excavation around Norman?

Clay soils that swell when wet are common here, with sandier ground in places and timber on the east side of town. Much of Norman drains to Lake Thunderbird, so sites here get extra attention on stormwater and erosion control.

Who handles grading and drainage permits around Norman?

The City of Norman handles grading, drainage and right-of-way permits in city limits, with its own stormwater rules in parts of the Lake Thunderbird watershed; ODOT covers state highways. We can tell you which one applies to your site before we price the work.

What kind of site work do you do most around Norman?

Commercial building pads and parking lot subgrade; Storm sewer and drainage on new development; Clearing wooded lots on the east side for new builds.

Does building near Lake Thunderbird change site work in Norman?

It can. Parts of Norman fall under the city’s stormwater and water-quality rules for the Lake Thunderbird watershed, which affect erosion control during construction and sometimes the drainage design itself. The civil plan and the city spell out what applies to your site, and we build to it.

Do you clear wooded lots in east Norman?

Yes. We clear and grub building footprints and driveways, and mulch areas that only need to be opened up, so you keep the trees you want.
