Excavation & Site Prep · Bellevue

Excavation & Site Prep for Bellevue properties

Bellevue homeowners call us for footing digs, house and shop pads, grading and drainage. We're a licensed, insured crew with twenty-plus years of experience, and every Bellevue job starts with a free quote.

On the south side of Nashville the lots are established and often sloped, so steps, retaining walls, driveway replacements and drainage do a lot of the work.

A Franklin customer wrote about their driveway grading: “Very nicely done. He was able to do my job the day after I talked to him He went the extra mile to make sure I was happy with his work”

Davidson County

Excavation & Site Prep around Bellevue

We work all over Bellevue — near Pasquo, Harpeth River Park and Bellevue Park and out by High Point and Little Harpeth River — and throughout Davidson County.

Bellevue is a west Nashville community along the Harpeth River and US-70. Bellevue is about 22 miles north of Spring Hill, well inside our 30-mile service area.

Concrete in Middle Tennessee has to handle clay soil that swells when it's wet and shrinks in a dry August, limestone that's often only a few feet down, freeze-thaw winter nights and heavy spring rain. A slab holds up when it sits on a compacted stone base, has steel where it needs it, sheds water away from the house and has joints cut where cracks are meant to go.

How it works

How your Bellevue excavation job works

  1. 1

    Free on-site quote

    We walk the site and look at slope, soil, access and where the water goes. Customers mention how quick and prompt our estimates are.

  2. 2

    Locates and layout

    We call Tennessee 811 to get buried utilities marked, then stake out the work area and grades from your plans.

  3. 3

    Dig, cut and fill

    We excavate, move dirt where the grade needs it, and compact fill in layers so it does not settle later.

  4. 4

    Base, grade and clean up

    We place the gravel base, fine-grade for drainage, haul off extra dirt and leave the site ready for concrete.

Questions

Excavation & Site Prep in Bellevue: FAQs

Do you do excavation & site prep in Bellevue, TN?

Yes. Bellevue is about 22 miles north of Spring Hill, well inside our 30-mile service area. We handle footing digs, house and shop pads, grading and drainage there, and the quote is free.

Do I need a permit for excavation & site prep in Bellevue?

It depends on the project. When one is needed, we pull the permit from Davidson County's building services and build to whatever the permit and inspection require.

Do you only dig for your own concrete jobs?

Most of our dirt work is prep for the concrete we pour, which keeps one crew responsible for the whole job. We also take on grading, drainage and pad work on its own for homeowners and builders.

Can you fix a yard that holds water?

Usually, yes. Most standing water comes down to grade, so we reshape the yard to slope away from the house and give the water a path out with a swale or drain pipe. If you are pouring new concrete, fixing the grade first is the best time to do it.

What makes excavation in Middle Tennessee different?

Clay and rock. Our clay holds water and turns to mud after heavy rain, so we time digs around the weather and never pour on soft, wet ground. Limestone often turns up shallow and some areas have sinkholes, so we watch for both and adjust before any concrete goes in.

How much does excavation and site prep cost?

It depends on how much dirt moves, whether it stays on site or gets hauled off, how much gravel base the job needs, equipment access and whether we hit rock. Grading a yard is a very different job from cutting a hillside house pad. We give you a free quote after walking the site.
