Pond Construction, Repair, Maintenance

We have been known for our pond work around the Ithaca area for years. We know the area and we know the locations in and around Ithaca where it is feasible to construct a pond. Before we dig we will come out and dig a test hole or two on the property to monitor if they can fill in and retain water. We will always do this before making a commitment to you to work on your project. We know when it is not feasible to dig a pond and will not agree to do anything but the very best for our customers. When it comes to ponds, we offer:

  • Construction of New Ponds
  • Pond Repairs
  • Repairing Pond Leaks
  • Pond Restoration
  • Removing Overgrowth
  • Advising on Pond Health
  • Limiting Algae Growth
  • Adding Decorative Fountains

Floating Concrete Pads and Monolithic Pours

We can pour concrete pads that can be used for a variety of things including:

  • Pole Barns
  • Floating Pads
  • Patios
  • Pads for Double-Wides/ Manufactured Homes

Gravel Driveways

We work exclusively with gravel driveways, we do not offer services involving pouring concrete or asphalt driveways (but we can refer people who do). We offer the following driveway services:

  • Repair Existing Gravel Driveways

  • Construction of New Gravel Driveways

  • Water Drainage Tiles

  • Resolve Drainage Issues

Stump Removal

A lot of people like to call it land clearing because it is easier than saying, knocking down trees. Our equipment allows us the ability to push over smaller trees and we offer stump removal. We do not take down large trees or offer log removal but we do have companies we can refer for these services.

Basements

Building a new house that needs a basement? Have an existing home with basement drainage issues? We can help. We offer basement excavation for residential sites. We also can dig around the outside of basements for footer drains and drainage.

Septic Systems

We all know that septic systems can be a messy business, but we don’t mind. From installing new systems to repairing or replacing existing ones we have you covered. Septic system issues are something you don’t want to handle on your own, you want to hire a professional that knows how to handle any issues that might arise. We are here to help you with all your septic system needs. 

Mulch, Topsoil, and Gravel

If you’ve ever had to add mulch, topsoil or gravel to your property you might have experienced the following: 

  • Not getting enough
  • Getting too much
  • Knowing how much you need but not how to get it

The good news is we can help with all of this. Call us if you need an estimate for how much topsoil, mulch or gravel you might need and/or delivery of these items. 

Retaining Walls/ Exterior Stairs

Retaining walls are an important part of landscaping and something we love to do. We especially enjoy working in unique situations where we get to add pressure treated and gravel stairs to make the best use of the area.

Looking for a service related to excavation and landscaping that you don’t see above? Give us a call and see if it is something we offer. If we do we will schedule a time to come to give you a free estimate. Contact us today to get started.
