"We needed a walk way widened. These guys took out the old regraded and poured the new walk in. Got it done very quick and it looks great. They cleaned up very nicely and raked the yard out when they were finished. I will have them back for more work in the future."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Your foundation and underground drainage systems are the most common areas requiring excavating over time. Expansive clay soils in Delta shrink and swell, causing foundations to shift and settle. Subsurface drainage systems clog and collapse, demanding replacement. Monitor aging clay tile sewer laterals, which crack and suffer from root intrusion, requiring complete replacement from your home to the city connection.

Helpful?

Assess your lot grading and drainage systems immediately. Poor grading directs monsoon rainwater straight toward your foundation, making regrading a top priority for excavating. Inspect your water service lines and replace any aging galvanized steel pipes. If you own a rural property in Delta, inspect your septic system and plan for a replacement before the aging tank or leach field fails.

Helpful?

Start by securing all required local permits before your excavating project begins. State law requires contacting Colorado 811 at least three business days before digging to mark buried utilities and natural gas lines. Plan your project for the fall months when the soil is dry and stable. Account for the expansive clay soils in the area, which require proper shoring to keep your trenches safe and secure.

Helpful?

Watch for widening wall cracks or sticking doors, which indicate that expansive clay soils are shifting your foundation. Standing water near your structure for more than 48 hours after a rainstorm signals an immediate need for drainage excavating. Unexplained lush patches in your yard during dry Delta summers point to leaking underground water lines. Address these warning signs promptly to protect your property from extensive water damage.

Helpful?

Proper backfill material selection is critical for the longevity of your excavating work. Using native CO clay to backfill around foundations traps moisture and undermines the structure. Import granular fill material and ensure proper compaction. You must also manage drainage effectively to direct water away from the site. Schedule your project during the dry fall months to avoid the severe settling risks associated with spring soil saturation.
