Kelowna General Contracting: Excavation, Trucking & Snow Removal You Can Count On

When a project in the Central Okanagan needs to move from idea to done, choosing a contractor who can handle the whole scope—site prep, haulage, seasonal maintenance, and clean-up—makes all the difference. At TNT Kelowna, we combine heavy-equipment expertise with practical scheduling and clear communication so your site is ready on time and built to last. From precision excavation to winter snow removal, plus trucking, demolition, and more, our team supports homeowners, builders, and commercial property managers across Kelowna, West Kelowna, Lake Country, and the wider Okanagan.

Why one contractor for site and seasonal work?

Coordinating multiple vendors often leads to gaps—delays in haul-outs, missed inspections, rework after the first big rain, or a winter storm that stalls progress. Working with a single, licensed and insured contractor who owns the equipment and manages the schedule keeps the project flowing. We sequence tasks, book materials and subs, and keep documentation ready for permits and inspections. The result: fewer surprises, faster close-out, and predictable costs.

Site preparation starts with excavation done right

Solid builds start below grade. Our excavation services cover foundation digs, basement cut-outs, and bulk earthworks for additions and new builds. We handle trenching for utilities, septic and sewer tie-ins, and we backfill to spec with proper compaction. For properties with water challenges, we design and install French drains and dry wells to move runoff away from structures, protecting foundations and landscaping. If you’re planning a driveway or access road, we grade for drainage, set elevations correctly, and place base materials to achieve long-lasting performance.

Typical excavation & civil tasks we perform:

• Foundation and footing digs, slab prep, and backfilling
• Utility trenching (water, gas, power, communications)
• Septic/sewer connections and drainage solutions
• Lot grading, driveway and access road sub-base
• Rock walls, small retaining structures, and slope stabilization (see landscaping services)

Trucking and material handling that keeps your schedule moving

Even the best plan stalls without reliable haulage. Our modern fleet supports material deliveries and removals so you’re never waiting on a truck. We supply aggregates and soils through our network and can point you to in-stock options via our landscaping supplies partners. Whether it’s clean fill, gravel, topsoil, or construction debris, our trucking services keep sites organized and crews productive.

We help you:

• Source, deliver, and stage aggregates and soils
• Remove spoils and construction waste quickly
• Coordinate haul-in and haul-out around inspections and pours
• Reduce idle time by aligning trucks with machine availability

Demolition with safety, recycling, and site cleanliness in mind

Preparing for a new build or addition often starts with selective or structural demo. Our team delivers safe, efficient demolition services for homes, suites, garages, sheds, and small commercial structures. We separate recyclable materials and route concrete and asphalt to our concrete crushing & disposal stream where possible, reducing landfill and tipping costs. Interiors are protected, neighbouring properties are respected, and sites are left clean and ready for the next trade.

Need to clear out accumulated debris or a previous contractor’s mess? Our fast, no-fuss junk removal is ideal for realtors, property managers, and homeowners prepping for renovations or sales.

Build for four seasons: snow removal that protects your investment

Kelowna winters can be unpredictable, but your operations shouldn’t be. Our commercial and residential snow removal service keeps access clear and surfaces safe with plowing, de-icing, and haul-away when berms pile up. Clearing snow properly also safeguards your spring project schedule: when melt begins, good winter maintenance reduces ice buildup, flooding, and site degradation. We plan routes, set service triggers, and communicate during events so you know when and where our crews have been.

Hardscaping, retaining walls, and finishing touches

Curb appeal and function meet when hardscapes are designed alongside excavation and drainage. Our landscaping services include rock/retaining walls, stairs, pathways, and small patios that complement the grade and guide water away from structures. Because we’ve already set sub-grades and drainage, these finishes last longer and require less maintenance. Looking for materials? Check our landscaping supplies to help you select the right gravel, sand, or decorative rock for your design and budget.

Transparent quotes, clear timelines, and dependable communication

Every project starts with listening. We review your drawings, walk the site, flag risks, and suggest value-engineered options. You’ll receive an itemized quote with scope, allowances, and schedule milestones. During work, we provide updates, coordinate inspections, and keep photos and notes handy for you and your insurer or lender. If the scope changes, we price it promptly so you can decide with no surprises. For a deeper look at how we structure jobs, see our guide to general contractor scope for site & civil construction.

Who we serve in the Okanagan

How to plan your project timeline (quick checklist)

1. Define scope early. Identify excavation limits, utilities, and any demo.
2. Handle permits. We can advise on what’s required and help you prepare documents.
3. Lock materials and trucking. Book aggregates and haul-outs in advance to avoid bottlenecks.
4. Sequence trades. Pour dates, inspections, and backfill must align—let us coordinate.
5. Plan for winter. If your schedule crosses seasons, set up snow removal to protect access and timelines.
6. Finish strong. Wrap with grading, compaction checks, and drainage—then add hardscape touches via our landscaping services.
