Excavation & Land Clearing in Cambridge, Ohio

Hill country drives that wash out after a hard rain

Guernsey County's terrain rolls and climbs, and drives on hills take the worst of every rainstorm. Water cuts ruts down the slope and carries gravel into the ditch. We regrade and crown drives, add cross-culverts where the water crosses, and build a base that sheds runoff instead of carving channels. On steeper grades we add drainage tile and check dams.

Pads and drainage for outbuildings, shops and acreage

Out toward Byesville and Lore City, much of the property is family acreage where people add a shop or pole barn beside the house. Clay and shale don't give you a flat pad to start with, so we cut and fill, compact a solid base and grade for positive drainage before anything goes up. A pad that holds water isn't level for long — we plan the water path first.

Old farm lanes, culverts and tile that need reopening

Working farms around Cambridge have lanes put in decades ago — some still functional, some caved-in at the culvert or silted up at the tile. We locate the old tile lines and culverts, clean or replace them, and regrade the lane so it drains again.
