Excavation Considerations

Regardless of whether you are building a small structure or a larger one, it will need some form of excavation. This becomes the first stage of any construction or utility installation project as the excavated space will be where the building’s foundation or utility feature is installed. In simple words, the excavation needs to be completed in a skillful and timely manner using safe excavation methods.

The contractor you hire for land excavation needs to be competent and skillful, knowledgeable and experienced and should have all the equipment and tools needed to carry out the job expertly. In most instances, the company that handles the excavation work also tackles the grading and site development jobs for that project.

Specialized Excavation Equipment

Excavation involves the use of specialized tools and very heavy-duty equipment and the company should also ensure these are maintained well. They also need to have experienced crew members to ensure safe and optimum performance of that equipment while the land excavation job is in progress; this ensures the job is completed efficiently and quickly without compromising on safety and quality. There is a range of heavy duty equipment that’s used in commercial and residential excavation such as:

Backhoe Loader/Tractor Backhoe - This is a vital piece of equipment used in site preparation and development. It can be used to dig small trenches and excavations and is typically used in utility and drainage installations projects.
Tracked & Wheeled Excavators - These pieces of heavy-duty equipment are integral to large-scale excavation projects. The wheeled variant is used in road construction and ditch cleaning.
Trenchers - If your project needs installation of, drainage systems, cables, pipelines or any other underground utilities, trenchers may have to be used in the job. The chain type trencher is generally used in residential landscaping projects, while wheel trenchers are used in industrial and commercial applications.
