Hillside Estates: Shaping a Sustainable Neighborhood in Somerset, WI

J & S General Contracting is proud to be leading the earthwork for Hillside Estates, a thoughtfully planned residential development located in the scenic Town of Somerset. As a locally owned company based in Osceola, WI, we’re excited to help bring this vibrant new neighborhood to life—one layer of earth at a time.

Our team is handling every aspect of the site preparation, from grading and excavation to stormwater management and utility coordination. With over 3,900 feet of new roadway, carefully contoured home sites, and smart drainage systems, we’re laying the foundation for a community that’s built to last.


Earthwork That Sets the Stage

We’ve moved thousands of cubic yards of soil to shape the land for homes, driveways, and green spaces. Our crews have:

  • Excavated and filled new roads, including 74th Street and 165th Court

  • Removed and replaced topsoil to preserve soil health

  • Compacted fill to meet strict engineering standards

  • Graded for stormwater basins and building pads with precision

Smart Stormwater Solutions

Managing water flow is key to long-term sustainability. We’ve installed:

  • Infiltration and biofiltration basins to handle runoff naturally

  • HDPE culverts and concrete flumes for safe water movement

  • Deep-tilled basin bottoms to improve absorption and reduce erosion

Environmental Care at Every Step

We take pride in protecting the land we work on. At Hillside Estates, we’ve:

  • Preserved flagged wetland areas

  • Restored native vegetation using approved seed mixes

  • Controlled dust and sediment during construction

  • Stabilized the site with mulch and erosion blankets before winter

Utility Coordination Done Right

Before breaking ground, we worked closely with utility providers to ensure all systems were marked, protected, and installed without disruption. This proactive approach keeps the project moving smoothly and safely.


Built with Heart and Expertise

With decades of experience and a reputation for quality, J & S General Contracting is proud to be part of Hillside Estates. Our work is helping create a neighborhood where families can grow, connect, and thrive—supported by strong infrastructure and thoughtful design.

Stay tuned as Hillside Estates continues to grow into one of Somerset’s most welcoming and sustainable communities.
