Excavation is where construction projects begin. Professional light excavation prepares sites by shaping grade, removing shallow soil, and establishing the elevations needed for concrete and site features. Central North Carolina’s clay-heavy soils and varied terrain require experience and attention to detail. Our work anticipates challenges, uses appropriate equipment, and delivers clean, safe excavation for predictable results.
We provide clean, accurate excavation for commercial and residential projects. Our work supports concrete pads, curbs, small structures, additions, utility routes, and other defined site features. We maintain controlled cuts, safe digging practices, proper utility locating, and organized soil handling throughout every phase of the project.
Proper subgrade preparation is essential for long-lasting concrete and site improvements. We shape, compact, and prepare base materials for slabs, ADA routes, equipment pads, curbs, and hardscape installations—creating stable, predictable performance for commercial and residential sites of all sizes.
We install trenching for drainage improvements, downspout extensions, conduit runs, sleeves, and surface-water management. All trenching is completed with proper locate tickets, clean excavation, safe digging practices, and precise grade control to ensure systems function exactly as intended.
We provide earthwork shaping for commercial areas and residential sites, improving drainage flow and achieving proper design elevations. Services include contour adjustments, cut/fill work, removal of unsuitable soils, and surface preparation to support concrete, landscaping, and site structures.
Our team performs demolition and removal of concrete slabs, sidewalks, curbs, pads, and small site structures. We complete all work with controlled excavation, debris management, and clean site preparation ready for the next phase of construction.
Safety is the foundation of our excavation work. Before any digging begins, we contact NC 811 to locate underground utilities and confirm safe working conditions. We evaluate soil conditions, plan proper excavation methods, and use well-maintained equipment operated by trained personnel. During excavation, we monitor depth, stability, and site conditions to ensure clean, accurate results. After excavation, we restore and organize the work area so other trades can move in efficiently.
