GPS-guided grading and CDOT-approved crews, from the first cut to the final course.
If you’ve been burned by vague scope, missed deadlines, or a subcontractor list that changes halfway through the job, you already know the risk of hiring the wrong crew for a road project. Heyl Construction has built and repaired roads across western Colorado for 27 years, from private access roads to CDOT-regulated public infrastructure. We handle grading, subgrade, base, and paving under one contract, with our own equipment and our own crews, so you’re not chasing down three different companies to get a road finished.

Years on the
Western Slope
Heyl Construction has been based in Silt, Colorado since the beginning. For more than two decades we’ve done civil work up and down the western slope, from Glenwood Springs to Aspen and Vail to Parachute, this isn’t a market we moved into, it’s home, and we know it well.
We deliver a quality civil construction product at a price that makes sense, and we do what we say we’re going to do: accurate bids, realistic timelines, and a GPS-guided Trimble fleet that keeps grading and excavation precise. From a 42-acre mixed-use development with a water ski lake and CDOT improvements to a half-mile private road paved under budget and ahead of schedule, we deliver at every scale across this region.
From site clearing to final paving, here’s what’s in scope.
Precision cut-and-fill and mass excavation using GPS-guided equipment, built to the exact grade your road design calls for.
Compaction and stabilization work that keeps roads from settling or cracking under traffic load.
Aggregate base placement engineered for the soil conditions and traffic patterns specific to your site.
Asphalt and surface work for private roads, subdivisions, and public infrastructure projects.
Drainage systems and erosion control built into the road design, not added as an afterthought.
We handle the logistics of moving material on and off site, so you’re not coordinating separate haulers.
From site clearing to final paving, we handle every phase under one contract and one crew.
Deep local knowledge of Colorado’s terrain, soil conditions, seasonal freeze windows, and utility requirements. We’ve worked this corridor for decades and know what it takes to deliver here.
Trimble machine-control equipment means accurate cuts and fills on every project. Less rework. Tighter tolerances. Better finished grades.
Excavation, grading, underground utilities, road construction, paving, and demo, all handled under one contract by one crew. No coordination headaches between subs. No finger-pointing when something slips.
Qualified for public road and municipal infrastructure projects. If your project touches a public right-of-way or requires state certification, we have the credentials to handle it.
We don’t low-ball to win work and make it up in change orders. Our estimates are detailed and our timelines are realistic. If something changes on site, you hear about it early, not at invoice time.
Tandem dumps, side dumps, end dumps, lowboy, and GPS-guided grading equipment, all in-house. We control the schedule, not a third-party operator.
No vague timelines, no scope-creep surprises. Here’s how a road project moves with Heyl from first contact to project closeout.
We walk the property, review your design or scope, and talk through what the road needs to hold up long-term.
You get an accurate, itemized bid, not a vague estimate that changes once work starts.
We lock in a timeline and move equipment on site, working around seasonal freeze windows where needed.
Subgrade, base, and surface work proceed under the same crew, start to finish.
We walk the finished road with you before we call the job done.
The Tree Farm PUD is a 42-acre mixed-use development in the Roaring Fork Valley with a water ski lake and extensive CDOT improvements. When we needed an experienced civil contractor to handle all the infrastructure, including a lift station adjacent to the lake, Heyl won our trust and our business. They’ve been a pleasure to work with, and I’d recommend them for any civil construction needs.

They paved our half-mile stretch of private road, had to deal with ten contrary homeowners, and they did a great job. I was one of the few who didn’t want the road paved, but they were very professional, worked with us as much as possible on the disruption, came in under budget, and finished quicker than planned. Absolutely five stars.
