A foundation dig done right the first time

Your foundation is only as good as the ground it sits in. We excavate footings, crawlspaces, and building pads for new homes, additions, shops, and ADUs, digging to the dimensions and depths on your plans.

We work alongside your builder or foundation contractor so the site is ready when they show up. If the dig turns up rock, groundwater, or poor soil, we stop and talk with you about the options before moving forward.

What our foundation excavation work includes

Footing excavation Footings dug to plan width and depth.

Crawlspace and basement digs Full excavation for below-grade spaces.

Over-excavation and compaction Removing poor soil and rebuilding it in compacted lifts when the site calls for it.

Building pads Level, compacted pads ready for slab or foundation work.

Spoils handling Excess dirt hauled off or spread where it's useful on the property.
