What we dig, grade, trench, and build.
Most projects around Newport are three or four of these in a row: clear the lot, cut the pad, trench the utilities, build the driveway. Corey sorts out the order on the site walk and writes one estimate.

Excavation
Excavation and site work
Site prep, foundations, grading, clearing, driveways, ponds, demolition, and hauling. The dirt work behind a new home, a shop, or a lot that needs to become usable.
-
Foundations
Basement, crawlspace, and slab excavation dug to your plans, over-dug for the form crew, and checked for depth and level before the pour.
-
Grading
Rough and finish grading for building pads, shop sites, driveways, and yards, shaped so water leaves the house instead of pooling against it.
-
Clearing
Brush, trees, stumps, and slash cleared from home sites, driveway corridors, septic areas, and overgrown acreage, with the debris burned or hauled.
-
Backfill
Foundation walls, utility trenches, and septic tanks backfilled in compacted lifts and graded to carry water away from the house.
-
Rock and hard dig
Foundations, trenches, and pads dug through cobble, hardpan, and hillside rock, with a breaker or a bigger machine brought in when the ground calls for it.
-
Ponds
Farm ponds and backyard water features dug and shaped on ground that will actually hold water, with the spoils and the overflow planned before we start.
-
Demolition
Sheds, slabs, old garages, and outbuildings taken down with the mini excavator, sorted, hauled off, and graded so the spot is ready for what comes next.
-
Debris removal
Slash, stumps, brush, and construction waste piled, burned where the rules allow, or loaded and hauled off, so a cleared or finished site is actually finished.
-
Hauling
Gravel, sand, topsoil, and fill brought in with the dump truck, spoils hauled out, and loads spread instead of left in a heap at the end of the drive.
-
Driveways and roads
New gravel driveways, farm lanes, and access roads cut to grade on compacted base with a crown and a ditch, plus regrades for drives that have rutted out.
Water and utilities
Septic, drainage, and utilities
Septic system excavation to the health district's design, French drains and swales that get water off the house, and trenches for water, power, and conduit.
-
Septic excavation
Tank hole, drainfield, and line trenches dug to the designer's approved plan, then backfilled and graded so water sheds off the field.
-
Drainage
French drains, rock swales, downspout runs, regrading, and culverts for yards that hold water every spring.
-
Utility trenching
Water, power, conduit, and drain line trenches dug to the utility's spec, bedded, and backfilled in lifts so nothing settles.
Fencing
Fences, gates, and walls
Cedar, split rail, chain link, and welded wire fencing, driveway and walk gates, repairs, and block or rock retaining walls.
-
Fences
Cedar privacy, board on board, horizontal, split rail, chain link, and welded wire fences, with posts set deep in rock and frost country.
-
Fence repair
Leaning and rotted posts reset, snow-load damage fixed, panels and rails replaced, and a straight answer when the fence is past saving.
-
Gates
Walk gates and driveway gates on posts built to carry them, with hardware and bracing that keep them swinging straight for years.
-
Retaining walls
Block and rock retaining walls at the residential scale, built on a compacted base with drainage behind them so spring water cannot push them over.

Corey walks the site, looks at the access, the soil, and where the water goes, and puts the scope and price in writing. No pressure, no invented urgency. If the job is not a fit for our equipment, we will say so.
We call back the same business day. Photos help: text them to the number above.
