John J. Read Construction Corp. has in-house site-work capability. We clear lots, build driveways, dig foundations and build septic systems per engineering specs. We can also add walkways, retaining walls, patios and fire pits to transform your outdoor space. We have state of the art excavating equipment and a highly experienced operator.
Excavation and site preparation is one of the most fundamental parts of the construction process. It lays the groundwork for a solid foundation, clearing obstructions for easy accessibility and minimizing problems in building down the road.
At John J. Read Construction, we offer a complete range of excavation and site work construction services to deliver stable and durable physical structures. With an in-house team of engineers and contractors and state-of-the-art excavation equipment, we ensure your project is completed smoothly – from planning to completion.
We provide excavation and site preparation services for residential properties across Vermont, clearing land, digging foundations, and building septic systems. Our local excavation and site work contractors have extensive knowledge of all types of site clearing, from hard-to-reach and inaccessible landscapes such as rocky and hilly areas to dense woodlands and steep slopes.
We operate with a streamlined approach, conducting soil tests and surveying the land to record precise measurements according to your engineering plans and the legal building permits and codes. This uncovers any potential building blocks before the construction starts, saving you time and money after the building begins.
Our excavating and construction site work services include:
• Removing obstructions, older structures, rocks, concrete excavation, and unwanted plantation from the site
• Preparing detailed excavation and gridline drawings, marking the excavation points and numbered grids
• Soil testing to determine moisture absorption, soil density, and load-bearing capabilities
• Leveling the ground for a solid foundation before digging
• Grading the site for drainage systems and landscaping
• Building septic systems as per engineering specifications
• Excavation for utility installation such as sewer, stormwater, drainage pipes, and gas and electrical lines
We also help you transform your outdoor space with outdoor excavation for driveways, patios, walkways, firepits, and retaining walls for both new and older properties.
When you trust us with your site work preparation, you can rest assured that everything from the initial soil testing and land clearing to digging foundations with the correct elevation and depth will be done faultlessly.
