Grading and Site Prep

CF Solar specializes in civil site preparation services designed to meet the demanding precision requirements of utility-scale and commercial solar projects. Our process begins with comprehensive clearing and grubbing, followed by precision grading that accounts for real-time topographic variances revealed post-clearing. Unlike teams that rely solely on initial survey data, we adapt in the field—leveraging refined post-clearing workflows that help ensure final grading aligns with racking system tolerances. This reduces the risk of costly rework and accelerates the mechanical installation schedule. With over 10 million cubic yards of earth moved and civil scopes completed on more than 10 gigawatts of installed solar capacity, CF Solar brings both the scale and the accuracy needed to execute complex earthwork safely and efficiently. Every site is approached with mechanical installation in mind because we know what’s at stake when the foundation isn’t right.

Roads and Infrastructure

Access and operational infrastructure are critical components of any successful solar installation—and CF Solar builds them to last. We construct stabilized access roads, heavy-duty substation pads, and other support features that keep crews working safely and equipment performing reliably throughout construction and beyond. From temporary haul routes to permanent infrastructure, our work is tailored to meet site-specific needs and engineered for long-term durability. In parallel, we manage the installation of landscape buffers and final grading features that support local permitting requirements and help projects blend seamlessly into their surroundings. Our infrastructure work isn’t an afterthought—it’s a coordinated part of the larger site strategy. With a turnkey approach and tight coordination with EPCs, developers, and racking providers, CF Solar reduces delays, minimizes rework, and delivers infrastructure that supports project success at every stage. When you partner with us, every road, pad, and buffer is built with purpose and precision.

Stormwater and Compliance

Environmental responsibility and regulatory compliance are central to CF Solar’s civil operations. We provide full-lifecycle stormwater and erosion control solutions—from BMP installation and silt fence deployment to long-term stabilization and closeout. Our team constructs effective retention basins and manages site runoff with precision, supporting SWPPP implementation and long-term environmental performance. With in-house experts conducting weekly stormwater inspections, we stay ahead of issues before they escalate, protecting both project timelines and local ecosystems. Our erosion control services continue through final project phases, including stabilization seeding, buffer installation, and proper removal of temporary controls. This integrated approach not only keeps projects compliant—it minimizes risk, reduces administrative burden, and ensures that sites are turned over clean, stable, and ready for operations. Whether you're in early construction or nearing closeout, CF Solar helps you stay compliant every step of the way.
