What We Do

Residential excavation
you can count on.

From initial land clearing to final grading, we handle every phase of site preparation with precision equipment and experienced operators — so your foundation goes down on a perfectly prepared surface.

Lot Clearing & Grubbing

Remove trees, stumps, brush, and debris to create a clean, build-ready canvas. We handle clearing of all sizes — from backyard additions to full lot preparation.

Foundation Excavation

Accurate dig for basements, slabs, and footings. We work to your specs — correct depth, slope, and compaction — so your contractor has exactly what they need.

Grading & Drainage

Proper slope and drainage protect your investment. We grade for positive water movement away from structures and install French drains when needed.

Driveway & Parking Prep

Base excavation and compaction for gravel, paver, or concrete driveways. We shape the subgrade so your finished surface stays level and durable for years.

Trenching & Utilities

Utility trenches for electrical, plumbing, and septic systems. We dig clean, straight lines at the right depth — ready for your trades to finish the job.

Fill & Compaction

Import fill dirt, spread it evenly, and compact it to specification. Whether you're raising a build pad or backfilling, we make sure it's solid beneath you.

We know the soil, the drainage patterns, and the requirements in Rose City and surrounding areas. That means fewer surprises and a smoother process from start to finish.

You'll know the cost before we start. No hourly guessing games, no change orders for things that were always included. Just a clear, honest estimate you can count on.

We protect your landscaping, clean up after ourselves, and leave your yard in better shape than we found it. Your home matters to us as much as it matters to you.
