Excavation Service

Welcome to an overview of residential excavation service! Whether you're planning to build your dream home, add a pool, or tackle a major landscaping project, understanding the basics of dirt excavation is crucial. As your trusted partner in construction, HBA Construction is here to walk you through everything you need to know about this essential first step in your property transformation journey.

Proper excavation is crucial for the long-term success of any construction project. Poor grading or inadequate soil preparation can lead to serious problems down the line, including drainage issues, foundation problems, and structural instability. HBA Construction will eliminate those worries for you.

Common Equipment

When it comes to residential excavation, two primary pieces of equipment dominate the landscape: the backhoe and the skid steer. These versatile machines are the workhorses of modern construction, capable of handling everything from large-scale earth moving to precise, detailed work in tight spaces. Their reliability and efficiency make them indispensable for any serious excavation project.

Our equipment fleet includes a backhoe, rock breaker, mulcher, auger and skid steer, allowing us to choose the right tool for each specific task. This versatility enables us to work efficiently while minimizing impact on your property.

Different Types of Excavation Service

Cut and Fill

Let's start with one of the most common types of residential excavation: cut and fill. This process involves removing soil from higher areas of your property (cutting) and using it to build up lower areas (filling). It's essential for creating level building pads, improving drainage, or preparing landscapes for new features. While it might sound straightforward, proper cut and fill requires expert planning and execution to ensure long-term stability.

Rock Excavation

Rock excavation presents unique challenges in residential settings, especially here in the Hill Country of Texas. When large rocks or bedrock are encountered, specialized equipment and techniques are required. HBA Construction's experienced operators know how to safely and efficiently remove these obstacles without damaging surrounding structures or landscaping.

Foundations

Foundation work begins with footing excavation, a critical step that literally supports everything above it. Precise depth, width, and leveling are essential for proper structural support. Our team's attention to detail during this phase helps ensure your building project starts on solid ground.

Basements

Though basements are not common in and around San Antonio and Austin, its excavation still requires particular expertise. Our backhoe plus skid steer service proves invaluable in these situations, offering the maneuverability needed to work in confined spaces while maintaining structural integrity.

Swimming Pools

Pool excavation service demands precision and experience. From simple rectangular designs to complex free-form shapes, proper excavation ensures your pool will be stable and level, with correct depths throughout. Our team's expertise helps avoid common pitfalls that could affect your pool's longevity.
