Villages At Fricks Lock Residential Development
Excavating Solutions for a Multi-Phase Residential Development
Brubacher’s teamwork and a dedication to providing Insight. On Site. is driving progress at the Villages at Fricks Lock, a multi-phase residential development project located in Chester County, Pennsylvania, where our team is honored to be serving as the site contractor for the construction of 155 single-family homes across 70 acres. In partnership with Moser Development, we are providing comprehensive site development services, including land clearing, earthmoving, utility installation, and paving. The project also includes blasting operations, off-site improvements, and critical roadway upgrades such as the realignment of Fricks Lock Road, the widening of State Route 724, and the installation of a new traffic signal.
This project called for extensive preconstruction planning and phased construction coordination. Before breaking ground in early 2025, Brubacher supported Moser with value engineering recommendations and design insights that helped reduce overall development costs while improving constructability. Once on site, the team encountered and resolved several emergent challenges, including redesigning deep utility connections and reworking stormwater infrastructure to align with local regulations and existing environmental constraints.
In addition to residential sitework, Brubacher’s scope includes roughly 4,000 linear feet of off-site water main installation along public roadways. The team has also addressed critical utility construction conflicts, adjusting design plans to modify underground service lines and pole placements that would have otherwise impacted construction and traffic flow. Leveraging our capabilities as a full-service excavating contractor, Brubacher is approaching excavation and fill operations in a balanced way across the site to reduce material handling costs and ensure a stable, efficient build.
With construction scheduled to continue into 2027, the Villages at Fricks Lock is a strong example of Brubacher’s ability to deliver reliable, cost-conscious solutions for large-scale residential construction projects. The team’s commitment to communication, coordination, and Shaping The World We Live In provides the foundation for development of a vibrant, well-connected community.
