We Have Experience You Can Trust
With more than fifty years of construction heritage in the family, we bring a working knowledge of land, soil, and long-term performance to every project. Apex homeowners reach out when the yard stays wet, when a slope interferes with how the property can be used, or when the land needs shaping before a larger improvement. Builders rely on steady scheduling and appreciate how we walk them through the early phases so the rest of the job stays organized. Developers look for a sitework partner who can communicate clearly and support their timeline. We help all of them with an Unlimited General Contractor license, dependable workmanship, and modern equipment including GPS-supported grading tools and laser-assisted systems that help us shape land with consistent accuracy.

Residential Grading and Drainage Improvements
Many Apex properties sit on rolling terrain or lots that have settled over time. Homeowners often call when runoff collects near the home or when the yard needs reshaping for a renovation. We look closely at how water moves across the land and create a plan that directs runoff away from the foundation. Some projects benefit from French drains, downspout piping, or natural dry creek beds in addition to regrading. We also prepare lots for new homes, outbuildings, and outdoor living areas.
Commercial Grading for Local Projects
Apex continues to grow with offices, retail development, and new commercial construction. We prepare building pads, parking areas, access points, and elevation transitions so the next trades can begin without delays. Our grading provides a steady base for concrete, asphalt, utilities, and future landscape plans.
Our Capabilities
Excavation Company in Apex, NC
Excavation for Pools and Outdoor Features
Apex families often add pools or outdoor upgrades, and a clean excavation helps installers stay on schedule. We cut the pool outline, maintain depth, and prepare the surrounding soil so the next phase of work begins smoothly.
Foundation Cuts for New Construction
A precise foundation cut supports everything that follows. We follow engineered layouts closely, provide clear access for concrete crews, and adjust to soil changes across different Apex neighborhoods.
Basement and Deep Excavation Services
Some Apex properties require deeper cuts for basements or additions, especially on sloped or wooded lots. These jobs may involve narrow access or compacted soil. We adjust our equipment and approach to match each property’s conditions.
Utility Trenching and Service Line Excavation
Many projects require trenches for water lines, sewer runs, electrical conduit, or drainage piping. We handle the cuts, support the installation, and backfill properly so the ground settles as expected. Builders appreciate having trenches completed cleanly and on time.
Special Excavation for Custom Property Needs
Some properties call for custom excavation to support ponds, landscape improvements, drainage changes, or structural features. We shape the land based on your long-term plans instead of using a one-size approach.
