Comprehensive Excavation Capabilities
From raw land to build‑ready grade
Reis Construction & Excavating delivers end‑to‑end excavation for residential and light commercial projects. Our team handles site clearing and grubbing, cut‑and‑fill balancing, foundation and basement digs, crawlspace and slab prep, footing trenches, building pads, driveway subgrades, and hillside shaping. We manage spoils responsibly, haul off excess material when required, and perform rough and fine grading to achieve precise elevations and slopes.
Beyond foundations, we specialize in underground utilities and drainage. Services include trenching for water, sewer, power, gas, and communications; potholing/daylighting; installation prep for French drains, swales, and culverts; stormwater inlets and outfalls; and erosion control grading. We also prepare subgrades for retaining walls, perform backfill and compaction in controlled lifts, and leave sites clean, stable, and ready for the next trade.
Planning, protection, and performance
Every project begins with a detailed consultation and scope review. We verify plans and benchmarks, locate existing utilities, and coordinate any required permits. Our team develops a site‑specific work plan that addresses access, staging, haul routes, and soil management. Best Management Practices (BMPs) for erosion and sediment control—such as silt fence, inlet protection, and stabilized construction entrances—are installed before mass earthwork begins.
Safety and quality control drive our production. We follow OSHA trenching standards using sloping, benching, shoring, or trench boxes as conditions require. Dewatering and groundwater mitigation are implemented when necessary. We compact in engineered lifts, perform proof‑rolling or density verification as specified, and use laser/GPS grade control to hit design elevations. Final steps include finish grading, stabilization with seed and straw or stone, and a thorough site cleanup.
Right machine, right attachment, right operator
Our fleet is sized for efficiency and access: compact and full‑size excavators, dozers, skid steers/track loaders, graders, rollers, and dump trucks. With the correct buckets, rippers, hydraulic breakers, and plate compactors, we tailor production to soil and rock conditions while minimizing disturbance to adjacent structures and landscaping.
Technology enhances precision and speed. Laser levels and GPS layout support accurate cuts and fills, consistent trench depths, and uniform slopes. Real‑time verification reduces rework, controls material quantities, and keeps schedules and budgets on track—especially important for critical‑path tasks like foundations and utility installations.
Experience matters when conditions get challenging. We manage clays, expansive soils, rock, and groundwater using techniques such as undercutting, geotextile reinforcement, over‑excavation, engineered backfill, and dewatering. Reis Construction & Excavating is properly insured, adheres to applicable codes and specifications, and documents work with photos, daily reports, and as‑built information when requested.
