Your Hamilton Excavation Contractor
Hamilton is the Ravalli County seat and the furthest town we serve in the Bitterroot. We'll be straight about that. We're based in Lolo, so a Hamilton job means planning around the drive. It doesn't mean we won't take it. It means we'll tell you honestly when we can be there before you commit to anything.
What you get when we do come: a locally owned excavation contractor that's licensed, bonded and insured, and on the county's list of certified septic installers. We dig foundations, build driveways, prep sites and install septic for homeowners and general contractors.
Estimates are free and on site. We'd rather see the property than guess at it, so we'll set up a time to come down and walk it with you.
Excavation Projects We Do in Hamilton
Around Hamilton, we tend to take on work where one contractor can carry it through: a septic replacement, a new home on acreage, or a site that needs grading, a driveway and utility trenches together. Keeping the work with one crew keeps your project moving. It also means one crew is responsible for how the pieces fit, from the septic location to where the driveway runs. Smaller jobs are still worth a call. Tell us your timeline when you call, and we'll be honest about whether we can meet it.
- Septic systems, new and replacement, by a county certified installer
- Foundation excavation for houses, garages and additions
- Site prep and grading for building pads and drainage
- Water and sewer lines and other utility trenching
- Roads and driveways across acreage and rural property
Septic in Hamilton: Ravalli County Certified
The county seat follows the same septic rules as the rest of Ravalli County: installers must be certified by the county, and we are. Ask any contractor you're considering whether they're on the list, and ask to see it if you're unsure.
The steps don't change from town to town. We dig test pits so the ground can be evaluated, the system gets designed and permitted, and we install it and have it inspected. Montana811 gets called before we dig, as the law requires.
On scheduling: call and we'll tell you when we can be there. We don't promise a response time we can't keep, and Hamilton is where that honesty matters most. The same goes for jobs up the road in Stevensville.
