Excavation, Demolition, and Site Preparation Services in Oakland, TN

The first steps of any successful building project is to clear and prepare the site. If existing structures are on the building pad, demolition will commence to make way for new construction. Then, dirt work, grading, and final site preparation will leave a blank canvas on which to create. 

Demolition Company, Fayette County, TN

If the building site has existing structures, Southern Dirt & Land will first tear down the structures, most commonly using heavy machinery. We remove all debris remaining from the old building to make way for new construction. In some cases, parts of the old structure may still be used for the next building project. In such cases, we offer selective demolition or interior demolition. This means we can dismantle only parts of the existing buildings or can clear out the interior of the building for complete renovation. Whatever your demolition needs call for, Southern Dirt & Land can complete. We always follow required protocol, obtaining permits and ensuring that all work complies with local building codes and regulations. 

Site Preparation Services Oakland, TN

Once any required demolition is completed, or if the building site is already structure-free, we move on to preparing the site for construction which requires several steps.

• Debris Removal: If demolition occurred, all the old structure will be removed and cleared from the area, but even on an open construction site, some debris removal may be necessary. Shrubs, trash, tree stumps, other foliage, or concrete may have to be cleaned up before proceeding.
• Excavation and Grading: Very rarely are building sites flat and ready to be built upon. Digging up and moving earth is typically necessary to level out uneven areas and create a base for construction. Southern Dirt & Land excels at expedient and experienced excavation. This is what we do all day, every day, and it shows. Our grading methods are precise and exacting, so when we’re done with the area, your construction will be ready to begin on a foundation that will withstand the test of time. An important aspect of excavation and grading is ensuring that proper drainage is set up for the site. Erosion and water can quickly destabilize a building site, so drainage is an absolute must.
• Other Site Preparation Tasks: In some cases, soil testing may be required and adjustments made to ensure the soil will properly compact for building. In other cases, utilities from old structures or nearby buildings will need to be disconnected or rerouted. Our team ensures that every last aspect is accounted for so that when you get the green light, you can proceed with confidence that the site is completely ready.
