Whether you’re preparing a construction site, installing underground utilities, or reshaping your backyard, Betz Works offers professional residential and commercial excavation services throughout the Bay Area and Central Coast.
We remove trees, brush, and debris to prepare your site for construction, including creating a stable, level building pad for your new structure.
Professional trenching for water, gas, sewer, electrical, and drainage systems.
We provide site grading to ensure proper water flow, structural stability, and permit compliance.
Digging and shaping foundations for homes, garages, ADUs, or buildings.
Shaping land for pools, ponds, patios, or landscape features.
Backfilling and compacting for structural integrity and erosion control.
Removing small structures or slabs to prepare for new development.
All services include equipment, skilled operators, and clean-up, so you don’t have to coordinate with multiple contractors.
We begin with a detailed assessment of your site to understand the scope, terrain, and access.
We’ll review any existing plans and discuss your goals. Based on this, we’ll provide a clear, itemized estimate and timeline.
If permits are required, we can assist you or coordinate with your contractor to ensure all paperwork is in place.
We also plan out the excavation approach, taking into account utility lines, soil conditions, drainage, and erosion control.
Before we begin digging, we clear brush, debris, and obstacles from the area. We stake out boundaries, mark underground utilities, and make the site safe for our team.
Using the right equipment for your job—whether it’s a mini-excavator or a full-size dozer—we carefully remove and relocate soil or rock according to your project specs.
We work efficiently while maintaining grade accuracy and structural integrity.
Once the dig is complete, we backfill trenches or open areas as needed, compacting the soil to avoid settling and ensure stability.
Final grading ensures proper water drainage and a clean, even surface.
We leave your site clean and ready for the next phase of your project, whether that’s foundation work, landscaping, or utility installation.
We’ll walk the site with you to ensure everything meets your expectations.
