Sitework and Excavation

Preparation for utilities, building footers and pads, grading for water flow, and additional sitework services.

Bringing Your Yard On The Level

Bucks County, Montgomery County, and the surrounding areas are known for their beautiful landscapes. But this area also faces a variety of environmental factors: ground movement with freezes and thaws, thick mature tree roots, hilly ground, thick clay, shambling shale, soil erosion, existing underground utilities, and so on. Having worked in this area for more than thirty years, we’ve seen it all and developed efficient methods for shaping the land to match your needs. Whether we are clearing or grading land, digging trenches for utilities, or creating solid foundations for concrete work, we understand the intricacies of proper site management and excavation.

Water Redirection and Drainage

Water always needs a place to go, and your yard’s grade and existing structures will determine how rainwater and groundwater behave. Your yard’s grade (or gradual change in elevation) needs to direct water away from your house, protecting you from a flooded basement or damaged walls. New construction, such as adding a pool or a deck, also changes your yard’s capacity to absorb and distribute water. Stoneworx’s sitework and excavation crew can offer a variety of solutions to match your esthetics and budget. 

Some of the services for water management include:

  • Dry well
  • Seepage basin
  • Swale
  • French drain
  • Grading
  • Erosion control

Excavation for Utilities

Stoneworx’s safe, efficient, and experienced professionals dig trenches for utilities in new or existing developments. We have experience digging for water, sewer, gas, communication, and electric lines. We prioritize clean worksites. When the project is complete, we will add seed or sod to the area depending on your preferences.

Construction Excavation and Footers

New structures rely on flat, firm ground for long-term structural integrity. We will provide the site excavation and grading to create a sturdy, level base for concrete footers. Precise excavation ensures your future building, path, patio, poolhouse, or other structure stands the test of time.

Sitework and Excavation

Excavation delivers more than stormwater management and flat foundations for concrete. Professional sitework includes sculpting the land until it matches your vision for your perfect yard. Removing trees, flattening bumpy areas, moving a hill, adding rocky routes for water to flow, rolling in boulders, and any other earth-altering tasks are all part of our comprehensive Landscape and Hardscape Design services.
