Excavation

Excavation contractor
in Northern Nevada.

Get excavation wrong and everything built on top of it suffers. The septic install, the leach field, the utility line, they all depend on the dig being done right the first time.

Local experience

We work hand in hand with the best excavating contractors.

The soil is different all over Northern Nevada, and we are familiar with all of it. We have worked this ground for over a decade and so have the contractors we bring in, so a site gets assessed on real experience with what is under the surface rather than a guess.

We're also a family-owned company where the people who answer the phone are the same people managing the job. That means faster communication when something comes up, honest pricing from the start, and accountability when the project is done.

Frequently asked questions.

A straightforward septic tank dig typically runs one day. Leach field preparation or larger site work can run two to three days depending on scope. We give you a clear timeline before we start and update you if anything changes.

We guide you through the permitting process and coordinate with local authorities as needed. For septic-related excavation, we work with the county health department to ensure the work is inspected and approved at the right stages.
