Frequently asked questions

Do you call Alberta One-Call before excavating in Edmonton?

Yes, we arrange or confirm utility locates through Click Before You Dig before any machine breaks ground. The locate plan covers ATCO Gas, EPCOR, Telus and Rogers lines so the first cut happens with the underground network marked and the work area safer.

Can you remove old footings and foundation walls that are still underground?

Yes, we can include buried foundation walls, footings and concrete rubble in the excavation scope. We dig to the agreed depth, remove the material and backfill or grade the opening so your build pad is clear and stable.

Will you backfill and rough grade the lot after a house demolition?

Yes, we backfill open cuts with suitable material and compact it, then rough grade the surface to direct water away from the future foundation. That leaves the lot in a condition your foundation crew can start on, so you always know what happens and when.

Can you reuse the excavated clay as fill on an Edmonton infill lot?

Some clay can be suitable for fill, but it depends on moisture, plasticity and compaction requirements. We assess the excavated material on site and haul away unsuitable soil, bringing in clean fill where needed so the subgrade is stable.

How soon can excavation start once the utility locates are complete?

Start timing depends on locate completion, equipment access and the current site schedule. We confirm a clear start window after we inspect the lot and review the locate plan, so your builder's timeline stays informed, and the timing is agreed before anything starts.
