Grading shapes the land to make it level and control water flow. We grade construction sites, driveways, parking areas, and yards to keep water away from buildings. Proper grading helps prevent flooding, erosion, and damage to foundations.
If you’re building a new structure, addition, or garage, we dig strong and accurate foundations. Our team follows building codes, digs to the correct depth, and compacts the soil to give your project a solid base.
A strong driveway begins with the right preparation. We handle everything from removing old pavement to digging the correct depth, shaping the slope for proper drainage, expanding areas for turnarounds or parking, and compacting the ground to prevent future settling. Whether you choose concrete, asphalt, or pavers, a solid, well-prepared base ensures your driveway stays strong and durable for years to come.
We dig trenches for utility lines, septic systems, and electrical cables. Our equipment handles rocky soil, tight spaces, and complex layouts. We make clean, straight trenches and fill them back in properly once the lines are installed.
Retaining walls stand strong and last longer when built on a solid foundation. We carefully prepare the site by digging the base to the right depth, leveling the ground, creating stepped areas for tiered walls, providing space for drainage behind the wall, and replacing weak soil with compacted material. Proper excavation ensures your wall stays secure and durable for years.
