  • Earth Basics Contracting Corporation

    3010 E. Miraloma Ave, Anaheim, 92806, US

    Earth Basics is Leading California & Texas in Site Balancing Earth Basics has managed more than 100 million square feet of earthwork ventures which include warehouses, retail centers, office complexes, food processing plants, manufacturing facilities, and more. Extensive in-house resources enable Earth Basics to tailor their services to meet and exceed their client’s needs and project objectives. Earth Basics efficiently coordinates their earthwork, focusing on time, cost and quality issues to guarantee results. Each project is unique, varying in scope, requiring customized designs, approaches, and applications. A systematic yet adaptable project management program is key for project success. By paying close attention to detail, quality is raised while simultaneously controlling costs. We anticipate and avoid problems rather than fixing them once they happen. No matter which direction your projects may take, Earth Basics stands ready to meet your earthwork needs. Levees & Flood Control Over the past decade, the Western US has seen the opposite end of the weather spectrum. The drought and the following weather systems that followed have changed our landscapes, damaged pre-existing infrastructure and cause millions in damage. Levees and flood control built before the drought may not be ready for the next waves of winter weather we have recently witnessed. In foresight flood control and storm water control has become a recent addition to our capabilities for all industries. This was natural to move for us, as we already offer civil engineering services, technology services, and equipment to perform this type of work, which is typically needed on very short notice. Earth Basics’ culture and customer service attitude allows for a quick response in a time of need, and we have what it takes to get the job done in a timely and cost efficient manner. Land Clearing/Demo Structure demolition, boulder removal, uprooting trees and vegetation. If you got it, Earth Basics can clear it out. Our unique earthwork experience in the business allows us to ‘value engineer’ the project, while planning and scheduling to account for all project obstacles from the start. Depending on your needs, Earth Basics can centralize the process and assume responsibility for everything from conceptual development through the design and construction. We know what works best, and can quickly and efficiently perform the task. Golf Courses The key feature of the world’s greatest golf courses is their grounds. Our expert crews and a specialized fleet of heavy equipment provide premium earthworks, excavation, and land clearing services to achieve even the most complicated elements of course design. From ground zero to C of O we do it all. Our estimating department uses cutting edge technology to produce accurate takeoffs and 3D modeling. With GPS Machine and Grade Control technology, ensuring we save your time and money on your project by getting it done faster, with incredible accuracy, and with minimal surveying costs to the property owner. Public Works Governments exist to protect the health, safety, and welfare of its citizens. America’s public works systems are part of the framework for that existence. Earth Basics infrastructure design can provide roads for safe travel, utilities for clean water, parks for recreation, and storm water management for protection against flooding. The quality of these infrastructure systems (roads, water distribution, wastewater collection, and storm drainage), impact the perception of the area and reflect its reputation. These types of projects have always been a great fit for the Earth Basics team. Housing Tracts Building a track home community is a large undertaking and land planning feet. Without the proper earthworks team, your project can be delayed or even worse encounter costly problems down the road. Our team at Earth Basics takes pride in our attention to detail with land development and controlled earthwork. Many subcontractors continuously praise and hope to start their work behind the earthwork's execution of work done on the preliminary subdivision plans, subdivision plat, and general grading. Testimonials Earth Basics leads in value added engineering while specializing in earthwork, excavation, heavy general engineering, site balancing, mass grading, ripping, scarification, moisture conditioning, dozing, 3D site modeling, land clearing, demolition, earthwork finishing, landfill closers and much more. Working throughout California, Arizona, and Texas, our highly trained staff develops innovative solutions to a variety of land and infrastructure needs in both the private and public sectors. Our team works in tandem with civil and soils engineer to establish balanced job sites during the essential preliminary stages of construction and site development. It is a common fact that most contractors prefer to start their work after Earth Basics develops perfected building pads.

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

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

What are the different methods of excavation?

Excavation methods vary depending on project needs, site conditions, and available resources. Some common methods include:
  • Mechanical Excavation: Utilizing heavy equipment like excavators, backhoes, bulldozers, and loaders, suitable for most projects.
  • Hand Excavation: Using hand tools (shovels, picks) for smaller excavations or delicate work near utilities.
  • Blasting: Employing explosives to break up rock or hard materials, typically for large-scale projects.
  • Hydro Excavation: Using high-pressure water jets to loosen and remove soil, often used for locating utilities or delicate excavation.
  • Vacuum Excavation: Employing a vacuum system to suck up excavated material, suitable for safe excavation near utilities or in confined spaces.
Excavation contractors choose the most appropriate method based on factors like efficiency, cost, safety, and environmental impact.

How do I calculate how much dirt I need for fill?

To calculate the volume of dirt (fill) needed, follow these steps:
  1. Determine the Area: Measure the length and width of the area you want to fill. Multiply them to get the area in square feet (or meters).
  2. Determine the Depth: Measure the difference between the existing grade and the desired grade (how much you need to raise the ground). This is the depth of fill required.
  3. Calculate Volume: Multiply the area (step 1) by the depth (step 2) to get the volume in cubic feet (or meters).
  4. Account for Compaction: Fill dirt compacts when it settles, so add 10% to 25% to the calculated volume to account for compaction. The exact percentage depends on the type of fill material.
For complex projects or uneven terrain, consult an excavation contractor or surveyor for accurate volume calculations.

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.

What is the best time of year for excavation?

The ideal time for excavation can depend on your location and climate. Generally:
  • Spring and Fall: Often considered favorable due to moderate temperatures and drier soil conditions.
  • Summer: Can be suitable, but hot weather can make working conditions challenging and might require additional measures (shade, hydration) for workers.
  • Winter: Excavation in winter can be more difficult due to frozen ground, snow, and potential delays caused by inclement weather. It might also require specialized equipment or techniques.
Consult with your excavation contractor to determine the best timing for your project, considering local weather patterns and potential seasonal constraints.
