What we do

Excavation and site preparation for new homes, additions, septic systems and drainage — the substantial ground work that the rest of the project depends on.

Why Green Island: Sitework planned by the same company that builds the house — so the ground is prepared for what goes on it.

What's included

  • Excavation for foundations and additions
  • Site clearing and preparation
  • Trenching for utilities
  • Grading and backfill
  • Driveway and access preparation
  • Coordination with septic, drainage and foundation work

How we approach the work

  1. Conversation and site visit — we learn the property, the goals and the constraints.
  2. Clear scope — what is included, what still needs to be decided and what information we need.
  3. Scheduled, coordinated work — one team managing the phases in the right order.
  4. Walk-through and follow-up — we finish what we start and stand behind it.
