What’s Involved in a Backyard Excavation?

Excavation involves the removal of rock and dirt to make room for the commencement of construction work. It often requires hole-digging, land grading, and leveling according to architectural and engineering specifications. 


Land Clearing and Excavation

We will prep space by removing trees, logs, roots, brush, and boulders. The start of any backyard project means excavating the land under and around the site of the new structure. Small backyard sheds may not require zoning, permits, and engineering plans. 

Fundamental Siteworks has a team of experts that will survey, stake out, and excavate the foundations for sheds, firepits, pools, or patios. We will also backfill around any concrete work. 


Grading and Landscaping

We will grade and smooth the soil to ensure proper drainage away from your buildings, driveways, sidewalks, and landscaping. 

Grading the soil is a critical part of the preparation process for all landscaping installations. We will work with your landscaping professionals to create the best backyard design. 


Pool Excavation

Pool excavation can be pretty difficult. But at Fundamental Siteworks, we are experts at excavating for all types of pool configurations. 

Once your pool is installed, we would be happy to backfill and compact the soil around the pool’s exterior. Proper backfilling is essential as it helps to support the walls of your pool. Remember that your pool will be filled with water and create a lot of extra pressure. Fundamental Siteworks will ensure that the soil around your pool is compressed properly, and we will address any erosion problems. 


Trench Digging

Do you need to dig some trenches? Fundamental Siteworks will create all the trenches you need on your property. 

We can create trenches of varying lengths, widths, and depths for:

  • Foundation footings
  • Utility lines
  • Sewage and drainage pipes
  • Water pipes
  • Sprinkler systems


Driveway Excavation

If you’re looking for a new driveway, Fundamental Siteworks will help you create the driveway you’ve always wanted according to your specifications. Our team of experts has all the equipment necessary to make an excellent driveway.


Excavating a Backyard: Drainage 

It can be annoying to step outside your home and into a mud puddle. We can help you with that! Fundamental Siteworks will ensure that you have the proper drainage above ground and underground. We use drainage tiles, rock layers, gravel and clay, and drain pipes to help keep your yard in pristine condition.
