Local Experience in the Lee’s Summit Area
Lee’s Summit has seen steady growth for years, with ongoing residential expansion and commercial development. That growth brings tight timelines, active job sites, and soil conditions that demand careful planning.
Like much of the Kansas City metro, the area features clay-heavy soils that are sensitive to moisture. Without proper subgrade preparation and compaction, soft spots and drainage issues can surface later. We account for these conditions during proof-rolls, stabilization when needed, and base installation to reduce the risk of rework.
Drainage is also a key factor, especially near developed neighborhoods, retention ponds, and sloped terrain common throughout parts of Lee’s Summit. Proper grading and flow control help protect both the project and surrounding properties.

ICON supports a wide range of projects across Lee’s Summit, including:
