Excavation Services

What is excavation and do I need it?
Well, Excavation is the process of digging up, moving or removing soils. Typical excavations include a multitude of heavy equipment, from equipment used for site clearing, large excavators for digging and even steam rollers for compaction. A properly excavated site isn’t just dug before a foundation is poured of before a retaining wall is erected, it is typically compacted to make sure we minimize settling.
Is there any way to make sure there is no settling?
Unfortunately no, there isn’t. All sites will react differently to the new structure that has been placed onto it. Factors such as site grade, soil conditions, soil compaction and how the new site and structure handle the new water flow.
Do I need an Excavation Contractor?
Well, are you planning an in ground pool? Maybe a new home development? Or maybe just clearing some land of trees, debris and cutting a hill down to make your backyard easier to enjoy for the whole family.
An excavation contractor may also be the right call for any type of water issues. Water can seep into the basement of a house through cracks in a cinder block wall or an improperly poured foundation. As your local concrete contractor; we can excavate back your existing foundation, remove what needs to be removed and replace it with a new concrete wall. The new foundation wall can then be waterproofed and sealed.
With a freshly sealed foundation and dirt pushed back into place, we can finally re-grade the site and focus on a new residential drainage plan to keep this from reoccurring.
Don’t hesitate to call or even shoot us an email and we can walk you through all the beginning steps.
