Excavation

Excavation is the unglamorous work that everything else depends on. A patio that floods because the grade is wrong. A foundation dig that hits the wrong depth. A utility trench that nicks an existing line. We have seen what happens when excavation gets rushed — and we do not rush it.

Our excavation services cover residential and light commercial work across the Salt Lake Valley: rough grading for new landscaping, footing and foundation digs, trenching for water and sewer lines, French drain installation for chronically wet yards, and selective demolition with debris haul-off.

We bring the right equipment for the job — not an oversized machine that tears up your existing lawn unnecessarily, and not hand digging when a mini excavator finishes in an hour. Every job includes cleanup and finish grading so the next trade or landscaping phase can start immediately.

Our process

How excavation works with JB Landscaping & Construction

01

Site survey

We locate utilities, assess access, measure depths and slopes, and confirm scope before equipment arrives.

02

Permits & planning

Projects requiring permits are flagged upfront. We coordinate with your builder or engineer on depth and grade specs.

03

Excavate & grade

Dig, trench, grade, or demolish per plan. Spoils are hauled or stockpiled based on your project needs.

04

Cleanup & handoff

Site is left graded, clean, and ready for the next phase — landscaping, concrete, or construction follow-up.

Seasonal note: Excavation runs year-round in Utah when ground conditions allow. Frozen ground limits winter digging — we advise honestly on timing. Spring through fall is peak season for foundation digs, drainage work, and site prep.

FAQ

Excavation questions

Yes. We trench for water lines, sewer laterals, electrical conduit, and irrigation mains. Blue stake utility locates are arranged before any digging begins.
