Mid Valley Excavation is licensed and bonded for both Commercial and Residential work in the state of Oregon. Based in Sublimity, Oregon since 2012, Mid Valley Excavation provides site preparation and excavation services throughout Marion, Polk, and Linn Counties as well as the greater Willamette Valley region.

"Discussed the problem with my steep gravel driveway and its condition by phone. They were very complete in describing the tasks needed to be done, and when they came out 2 days later, they had exactly the right equipment and thoroughly did exactly what they said they would do, in the time they said it would take. The driveway is now graded smooth and evenly sloped, rolled, and compacted. It is in by far the best shape in the 20 years I have lived here. All at what I consider a fair, competitive price. And the crew that did the job was a pleasure to deal with. A very positive experience all around!"

WE ONLY PROVIDE FLOORING REMOVAL, NO INSTALLATION. We provide 99.7% dust free tile, wood, slate and any other masonry removal. We eliminate the carcinogenic crystallin silica dust that is caused when removing these surfaces without our patented equipment. Before you get your new floor, let us remove your old floor and avoid the extra cleaning costs, time and labor required to clean-up dust. It can cost thousands, because it gets everywhere, in drawers, on curtains, walls, and ceilings. Take it from someone who has been there and done that; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYeeSJ6VzSE&t=5s

"Truly amazing. I must admit that I was a little skeptical about total dust fee, however that is exactly what it is. We came home after having all our slate tile floors removed, I tried to find dust in all the usual places, window ledges, countertops and shelves, I could find no dust, truly nothing! To say the least I was impressed, I would highly recommend their services. Jake"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can do German schmear on stone. You can account for the more textured and rough surface of stone by using a large paintbrush instead of a putty knife. A brush allows you to drag mortar across the stone to get it into all the cracks and crevices. However, a brush will cover more of the surface, so you may need a wet sponge to scrub excess mortar and expose more of your stone.

Dekton is worth the money for homeowners who want a nonporous countertop that resists heat, stains, water, scratches, and UV damage. It comes in a wide array of colors and patterns at various price points to suit different renovation budgets. Dekton is not worth the cost for homeowners who are particularly worried about chipping or cracking.

Unless you’ve worked in the masonry industry before, it is in your best interest if you hire a pro for any masonry needs. Masonry-related jobs require a high skill level and can be extremely time-consuming. If anything goes wrong, a licensed and insured masonry contractor would be able to take care of the subsequent repairs, giving you additional peace of mind.

Yes, masonry is more expensive than concrete because the labor is much more involved. With masonry, your expert will build your project from the ground up, one piece at a time, ensuring they use the proper amount of mortar or grout during construction and keeping the project level or plumb. Pouring concrete can also be labor-intensive, but it’s a bit less involved. It requires building a mold, pouring the concrete, and letting it cure. The less intensive labor makes concrete a more affordable option in most cases.

Yes, brick walls often add value to a home. For starters, many people love the look of brick walls, so they can enhance your home's aesthetic appeal and add warmth to your property, especially when it aligns with the rest of your neighborhood's look. They also provide privacy and security, which can further increase the resale value of your home.
