Washington – Oregon – Idaho

Excavation & Site Development

From clearing and grading to foundation excavation and utility trenching,
we get commercial and residential sites ready for construction.

Our Excavation Services

We handle individual excavation scopes and multi-phase site work for homeowners, general contractors, and developers.

Site Prep & Land Clearing

We clear brush and stumps, strip topsoil where needed, and rough-grade the site so crews and equipment can get to work.

Foundation Excavation

We excavate for footings, crawl spaces, and basements, then handle footing drains and backfill as the foundation work progresses.

Grading & Leveling

We cut and fill to establish the elevations and slopes needed for building pads, driveways, parking areas, and drainage.

Utility Trenching

We excavate trenches for stormwater, water, sewer, and underground power conduit, accounting for line depths, slopes, and crossings.

Drainage & Erosion Control

We shape grades and install drainage to direct runoff away from buildings and help keep exposed soil in place during construction.

Our Excavation Process


  1. Review the scope and walk the site

    Share what you have, whether it’s a site sketch, foundation drawings, or a full civil plan set. We review the scope against field conditions, including equipment access, existing grades, and where water flows.


  2. Plan the work around your build

    We figure out what needs to happen first, where excavated material can go, and how to sequence the work around other trades and any required inspections.


  3. Excavate and verify grades

    As we clear, dig, trench, or grade, we check depths and elevations against the project requirements. If we encounter something that affects the scope, we flag it and discuss the next step with you.


  4. Walk through the handoff

    We review the completed scope with you or your site lead and confirm what’s ready for the next phase, whether that’s forming footings, installing utilities, or paving.
