What’s Included in Our Excavation & Grading Service

Site Evaluation & Planning

We assess your property’s elevation, slope, and drainage issues before we break ground. This ensures proper grading and helps avoid costly water or structural issues down the line.

Excavation & Soil Removal

Using heavy machinery like skid steers and excavators, we dig to spec, remove excess soil, and prep the area for construction. Whether it's trenching, leveling, or clearing, we tailor our work to your needs.

Finish Grading & Compaction

Once rough grading is complete, we fine-tune the slope and compact the soil to ensure it’s ready for concrete, landscaping, or utility work. This step is critical for stability and longevity.

Tailored for Arizona Terrain

Arizona’s soil is often dry, rocky, and prone to shifting. We use local knowledge and specialized equipment to deal with caliche, hardpan, and uneven terrain. Our grading ensures water flows away from foundations and doesn’t pool in the desert heat.

What Some of Our Clients Say

David

Reviews are true! In my experience Espinoza Crete LLC did an amazing job removing a layer of block from my backyard wall. Art, the owner, was extremely professional and hands-on, staying at the job site from start to finish. He even reinstalled all the wall caps at no extra charge!

Tom Hamilton

Art and his crew were wonderful to work with. I first requested a rough bid over a year ago. When we got close to the pour Art was in contact with us daily. The day of the pour the whole crew worked hard to ensure we were satisfied with the job. Highly recommended!
