Excavation & grading in Port Dover.
Port Dover is approximately 40 min from the Hagersville base. Travel for excavation & grading depends on scope and scheduling. Whatever you're building, it starts with dirt moving correctly. We grade for drainage, dig clean, and leave the site square. We bring the machine the job actually needs instead of forcing an oversized one down your driveway.

FAQ
Excavation & grading in Port Dover — common questions
Yes. Cottage country. We build a lot of stamped patios with lake views and re-lay interlock at second homes that haven't been touched in 15 years. Site prep, grading, drainage corrections, foundation digs. Machines sized to the job.
Excavation & grading jobs start at $135/hour. Bigger jobs come down per unit and smaller ones sit higher, since getting the crew and machine on site costs about the same either way. Access, prep, and finish move it too. We quote a fixed price after seeing the site — no hourly creep.
About 40 min (38 km). It's a normal part of our week.
Usually grading: the lot was finished flat instead of sloped 2% away from the foundation. Sometimes it's a buried downspout that's broken. We dig, find it, fix it.
Yes. Posthole, footing, downspout, dry well — a mini fits through a 4-ft gate. We'd rather do the small job well and be the ones you call for the big one.
That's some of our favourite work. One point of contact, one schedule, and we already know your sites — so the second job costs you less time than the first. Concrete, excavation, grading, and winter maintenance all under one number.
