Before starting any excavation work, an essential process called ground tracing is performed. This involves laying down the excavation lines and center lines for accurate guidelines.

For example, the centerline of the longest outer wall of a building is marked on the ground by stretching a string between two wooden pegs. This preliminary step is vital for making sure the excavation follows the proper design specifications.

The Backfilling Process: A Critical Step in Construction

Backfilling is a crucial phase following excavation. This process involves compacting soil back into trenches or foundation areas to provide structural stability for roads, foundations, and walkways. At Colorado Excavating, we meticulously handle every step of the backfilling process to ensure lasting durability and safety.

Our Backfilling Quality Control Measures:

• Ground Level Recording: Initial ground levels are recorded for accuracy.
• Material Approval: Soil used for backfilling is inspected and approved.
• Layering: Backfilling is completed in layers, typically between 15cm to 20cm, for even compaction.
• Watering & Compaction: Watering is performed as needed to achieve proper density and stability.

Our experienced team understands the complexities of backfilling and works to protect underground utilities such as pipelines and cables during the process. With attention to detail and adherence to strict project specifications, we prevent common issues like settling or soil displacement.

Dewatering Expertise

During excavation, handling water at the site is often necessary to create a dry and stable environment. Our team has the skills and tools to perform dewatering effectively, ensuring your project remains on schedule and meets all safety standards.
