Excavation Contractor in Greenville, TX

As development continues to expand throughout Hunt County, property owners rely on dependable excavation professionals to prepare their land for construction, utilities, and long-term structural stability. Scott's Sand And Gravel provides excavation services in Greenville, TX that support residential, commercial, and agricultural projects of all sizes. With a strong understanding of soil behavior, drainage patterns, and proper site preparation techniques, the team ensures every project begins on the right foundation.

Comprehensive Excavation for Construction and Site Development

Before any structure can take shape, the land beneath it must be shaped correctly. Excavation is the first step in creating a buildable, safe, and stable surface. Scott's Sand & Gravel specializes in handling excavation work that aligns with engineered plans and local construction standards, helping clients move efficiently from planning to building. This includes everything from digging for new foundations to preparing large tracts of land for agricultural or commercial use. Through a combination of appropriate equipment and experienced operators, the team focuses on accuracy, clean cuts, and proper removal of displaced material.


Foundation and Building Pad Preparation

Preparing a site for a new home or commercial structure requires more than just moving dirt. Proper excavation ensures the soil is compact, graded, and ready for concrete placement. By shaping and stabilizing the building pad, the crew helps prevent settling, moisture intrusion, and structural issues that can occur when soil is not properly prepared. Every excavation is performed with careful attention to depth, slope, and compaction needs.


Utility Line Excavation

Installing underground utilities demands precise trenching and safe digging practices. The team excavates for water lines, sewer lines, electrical conduits, and drainage systems while following local guidelines and safety standards. Trenching is performed cleanly and efficiently, allowing utility contractors or property owners to place their lines without delay.


Site Grading Essential for Drainage

Grading plays an important role in how water flows across a property. Proper grading helps prevent flooding, foundation damage, and soil erosion. Scott's Sand & Gravel shapes the land based on intended use, ensuring positive drainage and effective runoff control around homes, barns, parking areas, and larger landscapes.

Land Clearing and Earthwork Services

Many properties require more than excavation before they are ready for construction. Trees, brush, and large debris often stand in the way of development. By combining land clearing with earthwork techniques, the team provides a streamlined solution for transforming raw or overgrown land into a usable surface.

  • Tree and Brush Removal

    Land clearing begins with removing vegetation that may obstruct construction or long-term use. The crew carefully clears trees, stumps, and thick brush while preserving the surrounding soil as much as possible. This creates a smooth transition into grading and excavation work.

  • Cut and Fill Applications

    Earthwork involves redistributing soil to achieve the desired elevation. Whether a project requires cutting into high points or filling low areas, the team adjusts the terrain to match design plans and create a level, stable work area.

  • Removal and Hauling of Excess Material

    Excavation often produces more soil or rock than a property needs. Scott's Sand & Gravel handles the hauling and proper disposal of excess material, ensuring a clean site that is ready for ongoing phases of construction.

Trenching, Drainage, and Erosion Control Solutions

Water management is an essential part of excavation, especially in areas with heavy seasonal rainfall. By creating trenches and drainage pathways, property owners can protect structures and landscapes from water-related issues.

Drainage Trench Installation

Drainage trenches are used to redirect water away from structures, driveways, and landscaped areas. Proper trenching ensures that water flows into designated channels, reducing the risk of pooling or long-term moisture damage.

Culvert and Ditch Excavation

For rural properties and commercial developments, culverts and ditches help maintain proper roadway and land drainage. The team excavates these areas to the correct depth and grade, helping prevent erosion and washouts during heavy storms.

Soil Stabilization During Excavation

Maintaining soil integrity is essential when shaping land. Through strategic excavation methods, the team ensures slopes remain stable, reducing the risk of collapse, excessively loose material, or future erosion.

Reliable Excavation for Residential and Commercial Projects

Every excavation project requires attention to detail and awareness of local terrain. Greenville, TX properties often feature clay-based soils that respond differently to moisture and compaction than sandy or rocky soils. Scott's Sand & Gravel uses this knowledge to guide excavation decisions, helping clients achieve durable, long-lasting results. The team approaches each site with a clear plan, ensuring efficient progress from start to finish.


Residential Project Support

Homeowners frequently require excavation for new builds, additions, driveways, ponds, and utility installations. Each project is handled with precision to avoid damage to surrounding structures and landscapes.


Commercial and Agricultural Site Needs

Larger sites often require extensive grading, mass excavation, and drainage planning. The team’s experience with multi-acre projects ensures consistent results that meet the demands of commercial growth and agricultural operations.
