We do get a number of calls a week looking for our services, but when people tell us what they’re wanting us to do, it’s not always clear to them what we do. To help people understand clearly how we can help, let’s answer the question - what is excavation?
Simply put, it’s the process of reshaping a parcel or area of land by either removing or adding features and items. This can be soil, rock, trees, bushes, or whatever other materials as you see fit. It can be done by hand, with machinery, using blasting materials such as dynamite, and even the force of water – also known as hydro excavation. The purpose of the excavation and the space itself will determine the best solution for each individual situation.
Rock and boulder excavation is a very popular and necessary service we offer here on Vancouver Island. So much undeveloped land is littered with boulders and rocks of all shapes and sizes. They can create multiple obstruction during the development phase of any project. We don’t mess around here. Our equipment is designed just for this purpose, easily crushing these obstacles and then we haul what’s left away.
We also hear the question - What is Grading?
It is the lesser-known little brother to excavating. However, it can be a vital component for achieving a successful completion on many landscaping and construction projects. Essentially the term grading refers to the process of levelling and smoothing the surface area of a parcel of land.
It can help with issues around proper drainage and the chance of potential flooding. It’s also an excellent solution for reducing the effects of soil erosion, which can become an increasingly perilous issue for landowners over time if it’s ignored. Grading is usually completed before the construction of any structures and other installations such as parking lots and roadways. Our fleet of heavy machinery chooses to work with only the best grading equipment to ensure a smooth outcome on all of our projects.
