Excavation & Site Work services in Plymouth

Plymouth is a city of lakes and wetlands. Medicine Lake, Parkers Lake, Bass Lake and dozens of smaller ponds and marshes sit among neighborhoods built mostly from the 1970s onward. The soil is glacial till, a dense mix of clay, sand and stones that drains slowly, with pockets of peat and muck in low spots that cannot carry a footing. Many homes have walkout basements cut into rolling ground, and runoff from the street side of a lot often ends up against the lower level. We regrade those yards, add drain tile and swales, extend downspouts, and dig footings for additions, decks and garages. Plymouth's wetland rules mean that work near ponds and marshes is planned carefully, with buffers kept in place and erosion controls installed first.
