    About Batson-Cook Construction Batson-Cook Company is a Georgia-based firm that has been in business for more than a century under the same name. The company was founded in 1915 by Mr. W. C. Batson and Mr. Edmund F. Cook in West Point, Georgia, where it began operations in textile and mill village construction. Batson-Cook continued to expand operations over the next few decades and became recognized as one of the premier construction organizations in the southeastern United States. In 1957, the company opened its first regional office in Jacksonville, Florida, followed in 1959 by another in Atlanta, Georgia. A third construction office was established in West Point, Georgia, in 1977. Mr. Edmund C. Glover, third generation of the founding families, became president in 1982 and chairman and CEO in 1994. Under Mr. Glover’s leadership, the company opened a fourth regional office in Tampa, Florida, in 1983. In early 1997, Mr. Raymond L. Moody, Jr., became president and COO to direct the company’s progress. Mr. Moody was named Mr. Glover’s successor as CEO in December of 2008. In January, 2012, Mr. R. Randy Hall, formerly senior vice president and general manager of the Atlanta office, became president of Batson-Cook Company and steers the operations and forward progress of the company. On January 10, 2008, Batson-Cook became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kajima USA. As is KUSA’s intent, Batson-Cook operates as an independent entity, just as it has for the last century.

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

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

What equipment is used for excavation?

Excavation projects employ various heavy equipment, chosen based on the job's scale and complexity. Common equipment includes:
  • Excavators: Versatile machines with a bucket, arm, and rotating cab for digging, lifting, and moving earth.
  • Backhoes: Similar to excavators but with a digging bucket on the back and a loader bucket on the front, ideal for trenching and smaller excavations.
  • Bulldozers: Powerful machines with a large blade for pushing earth, clearing land, and leveling surfaces.
  • Skid Steers: Compact and maneuverable loaders with various attachments (buckets, forks) for digging, loading, and grading in tight spaces.
  • Trenchers: Specialized machines for digging narrow trenches for utilities.
  • Dump Trucks: Vehicles for hauling excavated material to disposal sites.
The choice of equipment depends on factors such as the type of excavation, soil conditions, site accessibility, and project budget.

What is the difference between topsoil and subsoil?

Topsoil and subsoil are distinct soil layers with different properties:
Topsoil: The uppermost layer, typically rich in organic matter, nutrients, and microorganisms. It's essential for plant growth and is often darker in color.
Subsoil: The layer beneath the topsoil, containing less organic matter and generally denser. It provides support for roots but is less fertile than topsoil.
During excavation, topsoil is often removed and preserved separately for later use in landscaping, while subsoil is typically used for backfilling or other less demanding applications.

What are the different types of excavation?

Excavation encompasses various types, each with its purpose and method. Some common types include:
  • Topsoil Removal: Stripping the fertile topsoil layer from a site, often preserving it for landscaping.
  • Trench Excavation: Digging long, narrow trenches for utilities (pipes, cables) or foundations.
  • Basement Excavation: Removing earth to create a space for a basement beneath a structure.
  • Pool Excavation: Digging a precise hole for installing a swimming pool.
  • Roadway Excavation: Removing earth and preparing the ground for road construction.
  • Demolition Excavation: Clearing debris and preparing the site after demolition.
  • Channel Excavation: Creating channels for drainage or irrigation.
The specific type of excavation required depends on the project's goals and site conditions.

How do you handle soil disposal after excavation?

Responsible soil disposal after excavation is essential. Excavation contractors typically handle it by:
  • Hauling to Designated Disposal Sites: Transporting excavated material to approved landfills or recycling centers.
  • Recycling or Reuse: If suitable, some excavated soil might be recycled for other projects or reused on-site for landscaping or backfilling.
  • Complying with Regulations: Adhering to local and environmental regulations for soil disposal to prevent contamination or illegal dumping.
Discuss disposal plans with your contractor, inquire about recycling options, and ensure they handle waste responsibly.
