Excavating Contractor in Birmingham, AL

Excavating and Site Work in Birmingham

Strong pavement starts below the surface. If the ground is not cleared, graded, and packed right, even the best asphalt will crack and sink. We're Birmingham Paving, a family-owned crew that has done excavation and site prep around Bessemer and Birmingham for 18 years.

A builder near McCalla hired us to prep a lot that held water every time it rained. We cleared it, regraded for proper slope, and added drainage, and the standing water was gone. As your local excavating contractor, we handle excavation, site clearing, and grading to get your site ready for paving or building.

Excavation Services

Every solid lot, driveway, or building pad starts with the right dig. We handle excavation for new pavement, drainage, and site development, and we work clean and safe.

Our crew knows the heavy clay soil around Birmingham and digs to the correct depth so your base is stable. Good excavation now saves you from cracks and sinking later.

Site Clearing

Before any work begins, the site has to be cleared. We remove brush, trees, stumps, and old material so your lot is open and ready for grading and construction.

From a small lot in Bessemer to a larger commercial site, we clear it the right way and haul off the debris, so you start with a clean slate.

Grading and Leveling

Grading is what makes water run off instead of pooling on your pavement. We shape and level the ground for the proper slope and a firm, even sub-base.

Bad grading is the top reason lots flood and crack. We get the slope right so your new surface drains well and lasts through Alabama storms.
