Earth Moving & Shaping
-
Backfilling is the process of returning soil to an excavated area, such as a trench after a pipe is laid or around a newly built foundation. This is a critical step to provide stability and prevent the ground from sinking over time. It's always required after trenching or foundation work is completed.
-
Demolition is the safe and efficient removal of old or unwanted structures like sheds, old houses, concrete patios, or driveways. You would need this service to clear a site before starting new construction or to get rid of an unsafe structure. We handle the teardown and disposal, making your property ready for its next phase.
-
Earthworks is a broad term for moving, shaping, and compacting soil or rock to reconfigure the landscape. You would need earthworks for large-scale projects like preparing a lot for a new home, creating agricultural land, or major reshaping of your property. It’s the essential first step in transforming a piece of land.
-
Excavation is the process of digging and removing earth to create space for something new. This is the service you need when preparing for a basement, a swimming pool, a septic system, or the foundation of a new building. If your project requires digging a hole or a trench, excavation is the core service you are looking for.
-
Land clearing involves removing trees, stumps, brush, and rocks from a piece of property to create a usable space. If you have an overgrown lot that you want to build on, landscape, or turn into a yard, this service is the first step. It provides a clean slate for any construction or development project.
-
Trenching is the process of digging narrow, specific channels in the ground. This service is essential for installing underground utilities like water pipes, electrical conduits, sewer lines, or for creating drainage systems. If you need to run any kind of service line underground, you'll need trenching.
Ground Preparation & Finishing
-
This service involves pouring and finishing concrete for projects like foundations, driveways, sidewalks, or patios. It's often the final step after we have completed the necessary excavation and ground prep. If your project requires a durable, permanent surface, our concrete services provide the finished product.
-
Drainage solutions are designed to manage and redirect water on your property to prevent problems like soggy lawns, pooling water, or wet basements. If you notice standing water after it rains or have issues with a damp crawlspace, you may need a solution like a French drain or perimeter drain. This service protects your home and yard from water damage.
-
Our driveway service covers everything from removing an old, cracked driveway to building a brand new one. We start by creating a solid, properly graded base that will last for years, then install the final surface. You need this service if your current driveway is failing or if you're building a new home and need vehicle access.
-
Foundation prep involves excavating and preparing the ground to create a stable base for a building's foundation. This is one of the most critical steps in construction, as the entire structure relies on it for support. You absolutely need this service before pouring the footings and walls for any new home, garage, or large addition.
-
Grading involves carefully shaping the ground surface to create a specific slope. The most common reason you'd need this is to ensure water drains away from your home's foundation to prevent leaks and water damage. It's also used to create a smooth, properly sloped surface for lawns, driveways, or pathways.
-
Hardscaping refers to the non-living elements of landscaping, such as stone retaining walls, paver patios, walkways, or rock features. You would want this service to add function, structure, and beauty to your outdoor living space. Hardscaping defines areas and can solve slope issues while improving your property's curb appeal.
-
In our context, landscaping refers to the heavy work of preparing your property for its final look, such as contouring terrain, creating garden tiers, or digging for ponds and water features. This service bridges the gap between rough grading and the final planting. It shapes the earth to create the foundation for a beautiful landscape design.
-
Levelling is a precise form of grading used to create a perfectly flat surface. You would need this service to establish a solid, even base for projects like a sports court, a swimming pool, a patio, or a building pad. When your project requires absolute flatness, levelling is the required service.
-
A skid steer is a compact and versatile machine perfect for smaller jobs or properties with tight access. You might need this service for tasks like moving soil in a backyard, light grading, small-scale demolition, or clearing a small area. It's an efficient solution when a large excavator is not practical or necessary.
-
Slab prep is the process of levelling and compacting the ground to prepare it for a poured concrete slab. This service is necessary if you are building a garage, shed, patio, or any structure that sits on a flat concrete base. Proper slab prep is key to preventing the concrete from cracking or shifting in the future.
