  • B-C Excavating, Inc.

    4503 Lyell Road, Rochester, NY, 14606, US

    Our History It all began in 1974 when Louis J. Brongo, a hard working father of 8 children, made a life changing decision to get ahead in life. Louis J. worked as a shovel operator for a company, digging basements for new homes. This is where he met a business partner, and the two invested in some equipment to work for themselves throughout Monroe County. They still concentrated on digging basements, but also started excavating land for farmers and digging trenches for sewer & water lines. In early 1980, Louis R. Brongo joined the business, bringing experience from working with other local construction companies. After a few years (when the founding partners both decided to part ways) Louis J. and his son, Louis R., bought out the partner, officially making B-C Excavating, Inc, a family-owned business. Louis R. started cutting and selling firewood at the young age of 13 to make some money. He noticed at job sites that the contractors wanted trees, brush and stumps either buried on site or hauled away. Recognizing the opportunity to recycle wood into firewood, B-C Excavating, Inc. started offering land clearing services. As the demand for this service increased, our company focus shifted to land clearing. We purchased some specialized forestry equipment and started land clearing with the intent of recycling all the material from each job. Three generations later… This passion for land clearing certainly runs in our bloodline! 1974- Louis J. Brongo begins a new company specializing in digging basements, excavating land for farmers, and digging trenches for water & sewer lines. Early 1980s- Louis R. Brongo joins the business, and the company begins offering land clearing and firewood services. 1999- Jason Brongo joined the company, operating equipment and working in the field 2001- Jennifer (Brongo) Mesh begins working in the office. 2002- Joshua Brongo joined B-C Excavating, Inc.. After a few years with us, he went off to start his own tree company. We are a multi-generational family owned and operated company… When you choose B-C Excavating, Inc.-- you work directly with one of the owners. We take great pride in our work, maintaining a good reputation, and offering fair pricing with an experienced and professional operating crew to complete jobs efficiently. We recycle all trees, brush and stumps from land clearing jobs into log loads, mulch, wood chips and firewood. Nothing-- from any land clearing job-- goes to waste. We work mainly for contractors,

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

Find answers to common questions about excavation contractors and hiring excavation professionals in the USA.

Do I need a permit for excavation?

Permit requirements for excavation vary widely depending on your location and the project's specifics. Generally, permits are needed for:
  • Excavations Deeper Than a Certain Depth: This varies by jurisdiction, usually around 5 feet.
  • Excavations Near Utilities: Digging near buried utilities (gas, water, electric) often requires permits and utility locates to prevent damage.
  • Excavations Affecting Public Property: Projects impacting sidewalks, roads, or other public areas typically require permits.
  • Excavations in Environmentally Sensitive Areas: Projects in wetlands, floodplains, or other sensitive areas might need special permits.
Contact your local building department or planning authority to determine the permit requirements for your excavation project. Failure to obtain necessary permits can result in fines or project delays.

How do I know if I need a retaining wall?

Retaining walls are structures designed to hold back soil or rock and prevent erosion on sloped terrain. You might need a retaining wall if:
  • Sloped Property: Your property has a significant slope, making it prone to soil erosion or landslides.
  • Creating Usable Space: You want to level off a sloped area to create a flat surface for patios, gardens, or other outdoor spaces.
  • Preventing Damage: Erosion is threatening existing structures, driveways, or walkways.
  • Landscaping Features: You're incorporating tiered gardens, raised beds, or other landscaping elements requiring soil retention.
Consult with an excavation contractor or landscape architect to determine if a retaining wall is necessary for your project and to ensure it's properly designed and constructed for safety and longevity.

What is the difference between cut and fill excavation?

Cut and fill excavation is a technique for balancing earthwork volumes on a site:
Cut: Involves excavating soil from an area where the existing grade is higher than the desired grade.
Fill: Refers to using the excavated soil ('cut' material) to raise the grade in an area where the existing grade is lower than desired.
This method minimizes the need to import or export soil, reducing costs and environmental impact. It's commonly used for site preparation, road construction, and landscaping.

How do I prepare my property for excavation?

Here's a checklist to prepare your property for an excavation project:
  • Clear the Area: Remove any obstacles, including vehicles, outdoor furniture, landscaping features, or structures, from the excavation zone and surrounding area.
  • Mark Existing Features: Identify and mark underground utilities, septic tanks, sprinkler systems, or other buried elements you want to protect.
  • Protect Landscaping: Use tarps or fencing to shield trees, shrubs, gardens, or other landscaping elements from damage.
  • Provide Access: Ensure the excavation contractor has clear access to the work area, including gates wide enough for equipment.
  • Discuss Logistics: Coordinate with the contractor regarding parking arrangements, material delivery, and any special instructions or concerns you might have.
By taking these steps, you can minimize disruptions, ensure a smoother excavation process, and protect your property.
