Improper grading leads to pooling water and damage; we get it right the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about excavation in Riverton.
What permits do I need for excavation in Riverton?
Contact the Riverton City Community Development Department before starting; they review foundation work, site grading, and utility placement. We can help coordinate, but permits are your responsibility as the property owner.
How deep do you excavate for foundations?
Depth depends on your blueprints, soil type, and frost line. We follow engineer specs and building codes—usually 3 to 5 feet in Riverton depending on soil stability and seasonal freezing.
Do you handle utility locations before digging?
Yes, we call Dig Safe or Wyoming Utility Notification Center to mark gas, electric, water, and sewer lines before breaking ground. Safety is non-negotiable.
Can you work around rocky ground?
Absolutely. Riverton and Fremont County properties often hit rock. We have equipment to break and remove it safely, then adjust depth or technique as needed.
What happens to excavated soil?
We can haul it off-site to a disposal facility, or stockpile and spread it on your land for fill or future grading. We'll discuss costs and options before we start.
