Let’s get your Treasure Valley excavation project scheduled! We pride ourselves on timely service and quality work.
Foundation prep is one of our specialties! One of the most important and often least considered parts of a home is a strong foundation. Before that foundation can be laid, an expert excavator operator must prepare the ground, compact a gravel or cut a virgin soil base, and dig out the crawl space to within a very tight tolerance. This enables professionals to set concrete forms properly. After the foundation is poured and hardened, we backfill and grade the material around the stem wall. Often, we install french drains, foundation drains, or gutter drains during this stage of the building process, as well as trenching for utilities.
Do you need a new concrete driveway, patio, or walkway installed? Concrete flatwork starts with a solid, flat surface, usually a base of compacted gravel, before concrete can be poured. We also prep city sidewalks, custom curved and angled slabs, install culverts, and much more. Unlike some excavators, concrete contractors who work with us have expressed satisfaction with our results, saying they never have to go back and do more work than simply set their concrete forms and pour because the gravel base is level, true, and well-compacted. We will do our part to make sure your concrete driveway, driveway, or patio project is a success!
Do you need a trench excavated to place utility lines? Do you need to replace a leaking water main, repair a broken gas line, address a bellied sewer pipe, repair a conduit damaged by tree roots, or upgrade to underground electric? We have the right tools, including an excavator with a trenching bucket and a skid steer with a trenching attachment. Whether you plan to install a new backyard grill, a hot tub, she-shed, man-cave, or a workshop, we can help make your home improvement dream a reality. We are experienced in digging for electric, water, sewer, cable, as well as installing the right conduit for each type of utility as needed.
Making sure rain or irrigation water flows away from structures is essential. We have completed many grading and excavation projects in Boise, Nampa, and surrounding areas. We can ensure your property looks and performs its best! We can excavate channels and make swales, create berms, grade flat areas, and much more.
Whether you’re looking for a perfectly flat surface or an area with a complex multi-slope grade, we have to tools and expertise to make your project a reality. Our lasers and sensors allow us to level grade surfaces within a fraction of an inch over a large area.
Faulty lawn drainage or water pooling outside the house can cause major problems for your landscaping, home, outdoor structures, and even create a haven for insect infestations. We create custom solutions to fix your drainage issues. For example, one option is to install a dry well to receive surface water, often with multiple drains in problem areas. Another is to install a French drain which directs water away from structures and improves water flow off of your property. A third option is to create circular dry wells with an auger. Fourth, we can create berms, swales, or channels to direct water to where it needs to go. Any of our dry well solutions can be prepared in advance to receive a sump pump for difficult drainage circumstances.
We at Red Fox Excavation use our excavator, skid steer, and hydraulic hammer breaker, along with other tools to demolish and remove concrete driveways, small structures, and small trees or bushes. While we do not specialize in full-sized tree work, we can prepare most raw sites for your new building or remodeling plans.

“Josiah was very professional. He showed up when he said he would and did excellent work. He worked with us to find a creative solution for our drainage issues. His prices were fair and he did his best to find ways to save us money.”
“I had an unusual job of grading that needed to be done for my garden & orchard area. Josiah was happy to take on the challenge of make watering paddies for my veggie area & swales for my orchard. Thanks to Red Fox Excavation I now a have a very efficient way of watering my acre with flood irrigation.”
