Driven by Purpose. Built with Precision.
At Arlen Phillips Concrete & Construction and Nomad Dirt Works, we combine decades of experience, modern equipment, and a straight-shooter approach to deliver results that speak for themselves.
We don’t overpromise or cut corners — we show up, get the job done, and do it right the first time. Whether it’s a commercial concrete pour or a multi-acre land clearing project, we approach every job with the same standard: deliver top-quality work, on time, with zero excuses. Our crews are hand-picked professionals who know their craft, respect your site, and represent the kind of integrity that’s getting harder to find these days.
From Texas roots to nationwide reach, our name stands for something — and we’re proud of that.

Our Story
It all started with a simple mindset: work hard, be honest, and let the quality of your work do the talking. Arlen Phillips founded the company with nothing but a strong back, a sharp eye for concrete work, and a desire to do things the right way. As the demand grew, so did the vision — and Nomad Dirt Works was born, adding heavy civil capabilities to the mix.
Today, what began as a small operation in East Texas now serves clients nationwide. With trusted leaders like Ryan Maddox running field operations and an experienced office team coordinating logistics, we’ve built a reputation for reliability across a wide range of industries — from residential builds to complex infrastructure projects.

What We Value
We believe that solid work is only half the equation — the other half is how you treat people. That’s why we value transparency, follow-through, and accountability in every part of our business. We’re the kind of team that answers the phone, keeps you updated, and owns the outcome — good or bad.
Clients don’t hire us to make promises — they hire us to deliver. And we take that responsibility seriously. From the first conversation to the final walkthrough, our mission is simple: earn your trust by doing exactly what we said we would.

01
Safety First
Our job sites are built on preparation, training, and awareness. We follow strict safety protocols and expect every team member to watch each other’s back. At the end of the day, the most important thing is that everyone gets home safe.
02
Quality Craftsmanship
We don’t do “just good enough.” Every pour, every cut, every load is handled with precision and pride. We’re not chasing shortcuts — we’re chasing legacy work that lasts for decades.
03
Accountability
If we say we’ll be there Monday, we’re there Monday. If something goes sideways, you’ll hear it from us first — not last. We own our work, our schedules, and our reputation.
04
Communication
You won’t be left in the dark. Whether it’s a change order, a weather delay, or just a routine update, we believe clients deserve clear, consistent, and honest communication — start to finish.
05
Adaptability
Every project has curveballs. Our crews know how to pivot, solve problems, and keep things moving without losing time or quality. We don’t panic — we plan, adjust, and deliver.
06
Teamwork
Our team isn’t just employees — it’s a tight crew built on respect, experience, and shared purpose. We collaborate with each other and with our clients to make sure every job gets done right.
