Excavation for Homes and Builds in the Tri-Cities
Good construction starts with good dirt work. We handle excavation for new homes, garages, shops and additions throughout the Tri-Cities, cutting to the elevations on your plans and leaving a level, buildable site for the crews that follow. From a small addition in Kennewick to a full homesite out near Walla Walla, the goal is the same: 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
Site prep is where every project begins. We clear and grade building pads, balance cut and fill to reduce haul-off, and establish drainage that carries water away from the structure from day one. Proper grading helps prevent the settling and ponding that show up later on pads that were not compacted or sloped correctly.
For acreage properties around the Tri-Cities, we also build the turning and staging area your framing and concrete crews will need once the excavation is done.
Foundation and Basement Excavation
Foundation excavation is the most critical cut on any property. 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 so the foundation rests on material that will hold the load. Every dig is backfilled with the right material and compacted for the forming crew and inspector.
We install footing drains and surface drainage that move groundwater away from the foundation, because good drainage is what separates a foundation that stays dry from one that does not.
