Excavation Services in Walla Walla

We handle excavation for new homes, garages, shops and additions throughout the Walla Walla area, cutting to the elevations on your plans and leaving a level, buildable site. From a small addition to a full homesite, the goal is a stable, well-drained base that lets your build start right.

We work from your plans and coordinate with your builder so excavation stays on schedule.

Site Preparation and Grading

We clear and grade building pads, balance cut and fill, and establish drainage that carries water away from the structure. Proper grading helps prevent the settling and ponding that show up later on pads that were not compacted or sloped correctly.

Foundation and Basement Excavation

We excavate for full basements, crawlspaces and footing trenches to the depth and elevation your plans call for, accounting for bearing soil and local frost depth. Every dig is backfilled with the right material and compacted for the forming crew and inspector.

Soil and Site Conditions in the Walla Walla Area

The Walla Walla valley has a mix of productive valley soils, sandy ground and silty areas that can hold water. The right approach to excavation and drainage depends on what is actually in the ground, and we plan for the conditions we know to expect.

We plan drainage first, size foundations and trenches to the actual soil, and bring the right equipment for the conditions.

Trenching and Utilities in Walla Walla

We trench for water, sewer, electrical and communications lines throughout the Walla Walla area, digging to the depths required by code and utility standards and bedding and backfilling so the trench does not settle. We arrange 811 locates before any trenching and coordinate connections with the utility companies.

Where municipal water and sewer are available, we install and connect the laterals that tie your property to the main.

Demolition and Site Clearing in Walla Walla

When a structure has to come down so something new can go up, we handle residential and light commercial demolition, concrete and slab removal, and site clearing throughout the Walla Walla area. We plan the safe sequence, protect the utilities you are keeping, and haul off the debris.

Because we also excavate and grade, we can take a Walla Walla project from demolition straight through to a level, buildable site without a second crew.
