Ground Moved Where You Need It

Walker Fencing provides excavation services for construction, agricultural, and infrastructure projects in Greenville, Texas.

Before you can pour a foundation, install a fence line, or build a driveway in Greenville, the ground needs to be graded, cleared, or trenched. Walker Fencing operates excavation equipment to move earth, prepare pads, dig trenches, and shape drainage for construction and agricultural projects. Our operators know how to work around utilities, manage spoil piles, and finish grade to specifications.

We handle site prep for metal buildings, pad construction for driveways and parking areas, trenching for utilities and drainage, and land clearing for fence installation or pasture development. Each job starts with an assessment of soil type, drainage patterns, and access for equipment. We use well-maintained excavators, skid steers, and grading equipment to complete the work efficiently without unnecessary disturbance to surrounding areas.

If you need excavation work done on your property in Greenville, contact Walker Fencing to discuss your project and schedule an on-site evaluation.

What the Equipment Does and What Changes

Excavation begins with marking utilities and boundaries to avoid damage during digging. In Greenville, we use excavators to remove topsoil, dig trenches, and shape slopes for drainage. Skid steers spread and compact base material, while grading blades fine-tune the surface to create a level pad or proper slope for water runoff.

Once the work is complete, you will notice that the pad is level and compacted, trenches follow the intended path without wandering, and water drains away from structures instead of pooling. The ground is ready for concrete, gravel, or the next phase of construction without soft spots or uneven areas. Properly graded pads prevent settling and foundation issues down the line.

We also handle earthmoving for pasture development, pond construction, and road building on agricultural properties. If your project requires moving large volumes of soil, cutting access roads, or reshaping terrain for better drainage, we bring the right equipment and operators to get it done. Excavation is often the first step in a larger project, and the quality of that work affects everything that comes after.

What Property Owners Ask Before Excavation Starts

Landowners in Greenville typically want to understand how long the work will take, what equipment is involved, and how the site will be left after excavation is finished.

What kind of projects require excavation?
Excavation is needed for building pads, driveways, trenching for utilities or drainage, pond construction, land clearing, and road grading. Any project that involves moving earth or changing the grade of a site requires excavation work.
How do you avoid damaging underground utilities?
We contact utility locating services before digging to mark the location of water, gas, electric, and communication lines. Our operators also hand-dig or use vacuum excavation near marked utilities to prevent accidental damage.
What happens to the dirt that gets removed?
Spoil dirt can be spread on your property, used to fill low areas, or hauled off depending on your preference and local regulations. We discuss spoil management during the planning stage so you know where the material will go.
How long does excavation take for a building pad?
A typical residential building pad in Greenville takes one to three days depending on size, soil conditions, and access. Larger commercial pads or projects requiring extensive grading take longer.
Can you excavate in wet or rocky soil?
Yes, but wet soil may require extra time to dry or additional base material to stabilize the pad. Rocky soil can slow digging and may require larger equipment or rock-breaking attachments. We assess soil conditions during the site visit and plan accordingly.
