Frequently Asked Excavation Questions
Whether you’re preparing for new construction or improving drainage on your property, our excavation services ensure a stable and properly prepared site. Here are some common excavation-related questions.
We offer foundation excavation and backfill, site grading, site servicing, and retaining wall excavation for residential, commercial, and agricultural projects. Our services ensure stable, properly prepared sites for construction.
To ensure a smooth excavation process:
- Remove any obstacles (vehicles, debris) from the work area
- Confirm any required permits are obtained (we can assist with this)
- Discuss the project timeline and scope with our team
Permit requirements depend on the type and scope of excavation. Some projects, such as foundation excavation and septic system installation, may require municipal approval. We can guide you through the permit process.
Site grading involves shaping and leveling land to improve drainage, prevent erosion, and create a stable base for construction. Proper grading ensures water flows away from buildings, preventing foundation issues.
Excavation timelines vary based on project size, soil conditions, and weather. A standard residential foundation excavation can take 1-3 days, while larger projects may take longer. We always work on time, on budget, and OnGrade.
