What We Do
Excavation & Backfilling
From footings and foundations to pool digs and drainage, we handle excavation with precision. We verify grades and depths, stockpile or export spoils as needed, and backfill in proper lifts with moisture control to limit settlement. Expect clean lines, safe trenches and a site left tidy and accessible for the next trade.
Demolition & Site Clearing
Our demolition services cover interior demo, structural tear-downs and land clearing. We sort materials, load out debris efficiently and protect adjacent structures and utilities. Crews follow strict safety and environmental practices from setup to final sweep.
Grading & Land Preparation
Proper grading is the foundation of a durable project. We shape the site for drainage and access, build approaches, prep pads and proof-roll to spec. The result is a stable work surface that reduces rework and speeds up the rest of your build.
Utility Trenching & Drainage
We trench for sewer, water, hydro and telecom with accurate depths and bedding. For water management, we install French drains, dry wells and other drainage solutions to move water away from structures and prevent future issues.
Concrete & Asphalt Cutting
Need access through an existing slab, driveway or roadway? Our concrete cutting is clean and controlled, minimizing disruption and setting you up for a proper repair or new installation.
Retaining Walls & Hardscaping
We build long-lasting retaining walls, rock features and patios that stabilize slopes and elevate curb appeal. Our focus is on proper base prep, drainage and compaction so your wall stands straight and true for years.
Roads & Driveways
From new gravel approaches to full rebuilds, we construct roads and driveways with the right base, geotextile (when required), crown and drainage. Built to handle Okanagan conditions and heavy use.
Trucking & Material Handling
With our own trucking services, we keep materials moving—importing base, gravel and soil; exporting spoils and construction debris. Tight schedules and small windows are no problem when the fleet is in-house.
