Site Preparation

If you have land that needs to be developed, it should be prepared before excavation begins. This may seem like a fairly simple process. However, this depends on the extent of the excavation job. There are often a variety of steps involved in preparing the site. If you're looking for a professional service with extensive site preparation experience, you can always count on Erie Excavation. Our experienced excavation contractors will provide you with the necessary steps that they will need to take to begin preparing the site for excavation.
Basic Excavation Site Prep
- Site Clearing – The ground of the site where the work is to be performed will have to be cleared and then leveled. This involves the removal of any trees, buildings, underground structures, or anything else that could be an obstacle.
- Site Surveying – Our surveyor will make sure that the site is in the right area. They will add physical markets to identify the boundaries where the new road, building, or structure will be constructed.
- Soil Testing – It is essential to know the quality of the soil before we begin developing a site. The soil test helps us to decide how much weight the building can hold, and how well the area around it absorbs water.
- Site Plan Design – As the project progresses, the site begins to change. The site plan will identify everything that we need to know about the site, such as access roads for the construction vehicles, exactly where the new building will go, the locations where the drainage system should be installed, and storage areas for needed supplies.
- Geotechnical Site Investigation – This will involve examining the rock, groundwater, and soil of the site. This will help us understand the best way to build the foundation for the new building.
