The 550 side of Rio Rancho
North Rio Rancho — the neighborhoods off NM-528 and Unser toward US-550, including areas like Enchanted Hills — sits on sandy mesa ground a short drive from Bernalillo and Placitas. Most homes have concrete driveways, and the paving work here tends to be about adding room or replacing gravel.
Common projects
- RV and trailer pads beside existing driveways, built heavier than a car drive.
- Side-yard parking through the gate, replacing gravel or dirt that ruts and blows around.
- Gravel and dirt conversions on larger lots. How conversions work.
- Commercial lots along the US-550 and NM-528 corridors. Commercial paving.
- Sealcoating and crack sealing for established asphalt.
Sandy mesa ground
The mesa is mostly loose sand, sometimes with construction backfill beside newer homes. We dig out loose material, compact a real base, and support every edge so the pad doesn't settle along the house or break off at the side.
