Site Excavation in Cambridge
Precise digging and grading for foundations, additions, and new builds across Cambridge, with clean site prep and haul-away.
Site excavation is the groundwork every solid build stands on. Whether you're pouring a new foundation, adding on, or preparing a lot in Cambridge, the dig has to be accurate, level, and safe around every buried service.
What's included
- Foundation and basement excavation to engineered depth
- Lot clearing, stripping, and rough grading
- Cut-and-fill to bring a site to the right elevation
- Haul-away of excess material or stockpiling for backfill
- Coordination with your footing and foundation crews
Our process
- Site assessment — we walk the property, confirm access, and review your grading or foundation plan.
- Locates — we work from current Ontario One Call locates before any blade touches ground.
- Excavation — we dig to spec with the right-sized machine for your lot's access.
- Grade & hand-off — we leave a clean, accurate base ready for the next trade.

Frequently asked questions
How deep can you excavate for a foundation?
We dig to the depth your engineered plans specify, accounting for frost depth and soil conditions in the Cambridge area.
Do you remove the excavated soil?
Yes — we haul away excess material, or stockpile it on site if it will be reused for backfill or grading.
