Culvert Installation
Hunt County requires culverts installed on county roads be sized by a representative of the county. Culverts installed are a minimum of thirty feet long and the county representative, usually the Commissioner or the road foreman, determines the diameter. The county does not install culverts on new installations.
If you should have any questions please contact the Hunt County Commissioner’s office at 903-408-4195.

MULCHING

Mulching

* Tree Removal
* Trimming
* Stump removal
* Lot Clearing Services
* Mulching to protect soil erosion
* Surrounded by wooded areas or invaded by underbrush?  Mulching is a great way to protect your soil from erosion and rid yourself of underbrush and unwanted trees.

The mulch left behind will hold soil in place during heavy rains preventing soil erosion and creates ground cover.   The mulch also acts as an insulator keeping soils cooler during the heat of the summer and warmer during the winter.  As the mulch ages it breaks down adding beneficial nutrients to the soil that will promote healthy native grass growth even during extensive droughts.

Winterize!!

Fall is here and Winter is fast approaching. Don’t be stranded having problems getting in or out of your driveway.  If a heavy rain causes you a headache when it comes to your driveway, let us help you analyze the situation. Simply adding a little more material to your drive could fix the problem, or maybe you need some leveling, a swale, or a berm to alleviate the problem.   Read more
