Murfreesboro, Arkansas, is the Pike County seat, and we bring demolition and dirt work here from Hot Springs. The town sits about 56 road miles southwest of our base, roughly a 75 minute drive. The route runs west on US 70, then south on AR 27 near Kirby. As the crow flies it is about 47 miles, close to the southwest edge of our working area.
Around Murfreesboro we take on house demolition and mobile home removal, and our dump trucks carry off the debris. Our tracked excavators do the excavation and dirt work on river-bottom lots in town and on homesites near Lake Greeson. Two miles southeast of town, Crater of Diamonds State Park lets visitors search the eroded surface of a volcanic crater.

Murfreesboro sits on low-lying, rich river bottom land. The Little Missouri River runs along the west and south sides of town, about two miles out on each side. Before Narrows Dam, heavy rains in the Ouachitas rushed through the mountain gaps and flooded the low fields around town. Those floods damaged houses and cost farmers livestock and crops.
Narrows Dam, six miles north of town, has protected some 93,000 acres of farmland and homes since 1950. Its spillway still overflowed in 1968 and 2009, and land along the river below the dam flooded. On a low lot, fill dirt hauling builds the pad up, and grading and site prep slopes it to drain. Where a drive crosses a ditch, we set a driveway culvert to carry the water.
Murfreesboro counted 1,495 residents in the 2020 Census, and recent Census estimates put its housing at 865 units. Of those, 66 are mobile homes, and 96 stand vacant, so about one home in nine sits empty. More than half of the town's homes went up before 1980, and the median year built is 1978. The 1980s added 271 homes, more than any other decade.
When an older house or single-wide in town is past repair, a teardown clears the lot for a new build. The old slab or piers can come out in the same job before the lot is graded. Our mobile home demolition cost guide shows what moves the price of a trailer removal.
North of town, the Corps of Engineers built Narrows Dam, which holds back Lake Greeson. Daisy State Park sits on the north shore of the 7,000-acre lake. The county's northern half lies in the Ouachita foothills, with rocky ground and fertile valleys between the mountains. Pike County's own website names commercial forestry and family farms as its economic base.
On a wooded homesite near Daisy or Kirby, lot clearing comes first. If a lot borders Corps project land at the lake, cutting trees there takes the District Commander's written permission. A tracked excavator digs the stumps out, and our stump removal includes the haul-off and backfill. Then a gravel driveway runs from the house pad to the road.

New gravel drives cut and built, tired ones regraded and topped, parking pads that hold — shaped so the rain runs off instead of through.

Large-block retaining walls that hold Hot Springs hillsides — flat ground carved out of slopes, drives protected, the Bankhead specialty.
