  • Crosby Excavating Inc
    3.5
    1030 Osage St, Fort Wayne, 46808, US

    Yesterday and Today One man, one truck and a vision. In 1987, our founder, Steve Crosby, had a vision, and a passion. Steve had been raised in a “construction family”. Steve’s father worked for a local construction company, and encouraged Steve to tag along with him as he went to construction sites throughout the region. It was only natural that Steve would enter the construction industry when he began his own career. Thirty-five years later, he is still here. Steve loved trucking, and moving dirt. He started Crosby Excavating very humbly, with a single dump truck. Against all odds, and through sheer determination and dedication, Steve’s little company began to take shape. One truck led to two, then his first employee, and the die was cast. Crosby’s fleet of trucks grew, as did the type and size of equipment. Today Crosby Excavating operates from its renovated facility at 1030 Osage Street, near downtown Fort Wayne. The four acre site also includes a fully staffed maintenance shop and covered equipment storage area. As a result of its focus on quality, on time performance, and cost effective pricing, Crosby Excavating is enjoying steady growth in all of its market segments. This growth has allowed Crosby Excavating to attract the best talent in the region, making Team Crosby the envy of the industry. In order to keep up with the demand for its services, Crosby Excavating has been acquiring new and more efficient capital equipment. Whether it’s pavement demolition, earth moving, excavation, or snow removal, Crosby has the right piece of equipment to do the job. No job is too large or too complex for Crosby Excavating. In 2013 Crosby Excavating grew 93 percent when compared to 2012. Growth  continues at an impressive rate, in all areas of its business. This growth is the result of Crosby’s core principles: Safety first Do it right the first time Do it on time Provide unsurpassed value to our clients Crosby Excavating has been providing total site development services since 1987. It has never failed to complete a contract, and stands ready to perform for you. Our Mission We strive to maintain the highest degree of technology in the industry, so that we can offer our customers the best solutions to their needs. All Crosby Excavating employees are dedicated to the understanding that our customers are the most important people. Our customers are NOT dependent on us….we are dependent on them. Our company will continue to thrive and grow by maintaining our mission and our commitment to our customers. Award Winning Safety We take pride in our training and have a full time safety manager on staff.

Frequently Asked Questions About Excavation Contractors

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

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.

How deep can you excavate?

The depth of excavation achievable depends on multiple factors:
  • Soil Type and Stability: Stable, cohesive soils allow for deeper excavations than loose or unstable soils.
  • Groundwater Level: Excavations below the water table require dewatering techniques to manage water intrusion.
  • Equipment and Resources: The size and capabilities of excavation equipment influence the achievable depth.
  • Safety Regulations: OSHA and other safety regulations impose limitations on trench depths without proper shoring or sloping.
  • Project Requirements: The purpose of the excavation (basement, pool, foundation) determines the necessary depth.
Experienced excavation contractors can assess your site and project specifics to determine the safe and feasible excavation depth.

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 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.
