Our Comprehensive Excavation Services

Preparing Your Land for New Construction & Development

We handle every step needed to prepare your property for construction. As a full-service local excavation contractor, Ace Septic & Excavation has the experience and equipment to manage all aspects of residential site preparation.

1. Land Clearing

Remove trees, brush, rocks, and other obstacles to create a build-ready site. Our land clearing services are tailored to the specific needs of your build, addition, or other outdoor project.

2. Foundation Excavation

We dig to the exact depth, width, and specs that your plans require for your new build, addition, or other project. By preparing a stable base for your foundation, we help ensure long-term structural integrity and keep your construction moving on schedule.

3. Driveway & Path Excavation

We excavate driveways and paths with the proper depth, slope, and layout to support long-lasting pavement or gravel surfaces. By preparing a solid base and addressing drainage needs, we make sure the access points for your new development are ready to handle daily use.

4. Land Grading

We reshape and level your site to the proper slope and elevation, ensuring stability and function for your project. Whether it requires adding or removing soil, our grading services create a smooth, even surface that supports construction, landscaping, and effective drainage.

5. Drainage Systems

Protect your site from water damage with properly designed drainage solutions. We install trenches, pipes, and slopes that redirect water away from foundations, driveways, and yards. By managing runoff, we help prevent erosion, flooding, and costly construction delays.

6. Utility Trenching

We provide precise trenching for underground utilities, including water, gas, and electricity. By preparing clean, accurate trenches, we make it possible to safely install or repair the infrastructure your home depends on.

7. Septic System Installation

For properties without access to public sewer, we handle complete septic system installations. From soil testing and permits to excavation and final setup, we install septic tanks and drainfields designed for reliable, long-term wastewater treatment.
