Foundation voids, pool shells and trenches filled with the right material and compacted in layers for a stable surface.
A hole is easy to fill and hard to fill well. Loose fill settles, sinks and creates dips in yards, driveways and slabs months after the work is done. Doing it right means the right material, the right moisture and compaction in thin layers.
We confirm the fill specification with you and your builder, source clean fill, place it in lifts and compact each lift with the right equipment. We shape and grade the surface, and where the project requires, we coordinate testing. Whether it is a basement void, a pool, a trench or a low area, the result is a firm, even surface.
Clean, suitable fill compacts well. Wet clay, trash and organic soil do not. We choose and verify material before it goes in.
Compacting thin layers one at a time is what makes the fill stable. Dumping a deep layer and driving over it is not compaction.
Soil has an ideal moisture range. We plan the work around rain and adjust the material.
When a building or structure will sit on the fill, testing by a qualified firm confirms it. We coordinate and keep records.

You tell us about the project, the timeline and any concerns, and we set a time to visit that fits your day.
We walk the structure and the lot, check access, utilities and likely hazards and take photos and measurements.
We prepare the written scope, coordinate permits, surveys and utility disconnects and set up fencing and dust control.
The work proceeds in a planned order with water on dust and materials sorted for recycling.
Debris is loaded and hauled away on schedule, and the site is swept and kept tidy.
We grade the lot, sweep for nails and debris, take photos and walk the finished work with you.
Often with engineering and testing. Ask your builder and engineer before planning a structure over fill.
Properly compacted fill settles very little. Poorly compacted fill can sink noticeably.
We can source clean fill or use material you provide if it is suitable.
Yes, after removing walls and slab as needed.
Small voids take a day, and large basements or pools take several days.
