  • Vallencourt Construction Co
    4.4
    449 Center St., Green Cove Springs, 32043, US

    About Our Company Since 1945, Vallencourt Construction has provided superior service on site development projects that are completed on time and within budget. A Promising Start About Our Founding and Company Vallencourt Construction is a family-owned and operated company that was founded in 1945 by Francis E. Vallencourt (Val) with a commitment to straightforward estimates for high quality work. Many construction companies are able to provide similar services. It's our goal to provide our clients with a higher level of service that separates us from the competition. For over 70 years, the Vallencourt family has operated our company on a few simple concepts: fair pricing, starting and finishing jobs on time, and honoring any commitments we make. This kind of fair dealing creates better value in an industry that is filled with companies that might seem interchangeable. When dealing with our customers, we are always focused on building a relationship that is based on trust and respect. In 1945, with money that was borrowed from an uncle, a youthful Val Vallencourt bought his first Ford tractor and began clearing land for Victory Gardens after World War II. Val and Barbara made up for a lack of experience and money with old fashioned hard work. Clearing led to grading, grading led to asphalt paving and underground utilities. Nearly 75 years later our founder has gone, but the family and the business that he began continues on with the same enthusiasm and can-do spirit of a young man just home from the war. The youngest son, Mike, took the reins in 1985. With his older brother Frank at his side, the remade business— Vallencourt Construction Co.— grew slowly at first. But persistence is as much a part of Vallencourt history as any other virtue or vice, and the hard work that makes up the daily grind of construction began to pay bigger and bigger dividends. Then the company crossed paths with its next president, Marcus McInarnay. For the next 18 years, the two developed personally and professionally. The business grew to new heights. Equipment was purchased, new markets were developed, and technology became THE way to the future. GPS enabled machines to be more productive. Demand for the value that the Vallencourt team provided to every job grew. With the downturn of 2008, sales volumes were cut in half twice. The future was once again uncertain, but relationships that take a lifetime to develop don’t pay attention to economic conditions. The company survived, and the family grew

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

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

How do I know if I need excavation for my project?

Several project types often necessitate excavation:
  • New Construction: Laying foundations, basements, or underground utilities for new buildings.
  • Home Additions: Creating space for new rooms, basements, or extensions.
  • Landscaping: Leveling ground, creating slopes, installing retaining walls, or digging for ponds or pools.
  • Drainage Improvement: Installing French drains, drainage ditches, or swales to manage water runoff.
  • Utility Installation or Repair: Laying new water, sewer, gas, or electrical lines, or repairing existing ones.
  • Demolition: Clearing debris and preparing the site after demolishing a structure.
If your project involves altering the ground level or installing underground features, excavation is likely required.

How do you protect utilities during excavation?

Protecting buried utilities is paramount during excavation. Here are crucial steps:
  • Utility Locates: Contact your utility companies to mark the locations of underground lines before excavation begins. This is usually a free service.
  • Hand Digging: Excavate carefully by hand near marked utility lines to avoid damage.
  • Potholing: Digging small test holes to expose and verify utility depths and locations.
  • Safe Distances: Maintaining a safe distance between excavation equipment and marked utility lines.
  • Vacuum Excavation: Using vacuum excavation techniques to expose utilities without digging, reducing the risk of damage.
Reputable excavation contractors prioritize utility protection and adhere to safety guidelines to prevent costly and potentially dangerous accidents.

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.

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.
