Concrete Excavation Services in Greater Buffalo

Expert Excavation Services for Your Next Project

When your project requires excavation before the concrete work can begin, the preparation phase is what determines whether everything built on top of it lasts. Blount Concrete has handled residential and commercial excavation across the North and South Towns of Greater Buffalo for 40 years. We are a locally and family-owned concrete company based in Tonawanda, fully licensed and insured.

We do not subcontract excavation out. Our experienced crew handles site preparation, concrete removal, and small commercial excavation directly, so the transition from a cleared and graded site to a finished concrete pour stays on your schedule and under consistent quality control.

Excavation work we take on:

• Site preparation for driveways, patios, sidewalks, garage slabs, and porches
• Concrete removal and hauling (driveways, slabs, old foundations)
• Site clearing and grading for new concrete pours
• Small commercial excavation projects
• Excavation for building additions and structural work
• Foundation excavation as part of a full foundation project

Every Blount excavation project starts with a free estimate at your site. No money down, and you are not billed until the job is complete.

When You Need Excavation Services

Choosing the right excavation contractor matters for the success of any concrete project. Blount Concrete has the experience and equipment to deliver clean, reliable site work. You may need our excavation services when you are starting a new commercial project, preparing for a building addition, clearing and grading a site for new concrete, or removing old concrete before a fresh pour. If you have an upcoming project that needs professional excavation, reach out and we will walk the site with you.

Reliable and Professional Excavation Services

Blount Concrete stands out for its commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, and our excavation work comes with real advantages built in: $200 off any job over $3,000, licensed and fully insured, no money down, locally and family-owned, and we do not get paid until the job is done. Every project starts with a free estimate, we deliver our own concrete, and we use wire and fiber mesh reinforcement in all our concrete. That combination keeps your project on one schedule, under one accountable crew, from excavation through the finished pour.

Concrete Excavation That Sets Up a Clean, Long-Lasting Pour

Excavation and concrete work are not separate decisions in Greater Buffalo. The condition of what sits beneath your slab is as important as the mix and reinforcement above it. Blount Concrete approaches every excavation project with the finished pour in mind.

That means proper depth and slope for drainage, removal of soil or debris that would shift under load, and a base that will hold its position through Western New York’s freeze-thaw cycles. Our region’s winters are hard on concrete that sits on a poorly prepared base. Water gets in, freezes, and moves things. We excavate to prevent that from the start.

When we prepare a site, we are already thinking about what the concrete needs:

• Proper grade and drainage. Standing water under a slab will fail it from below. We grade for runoff before any form work begins.
• Compacted base. A soft or uneven base leads to settling and cracking. We remove unstable material and compact the sub-base.
• Correct depth for the application. A driveway, a garage floor, and a foundation footing all have different depth requirements. We excavate to match the application.
• Wire and fiber mesh reinforcement ready. Every Blount concrete pour includes both wire mesh and fiber mesh reinforcement as a standard. That dual-layer reinforcement is our defense against freeze-thaw cracking. Excavation done right means the reinforcement can do its job.

Residential Concrete Excavation

Most residential excavation projects come down to one of two scenarios: you are installing new concrete where none existed before, or you are removing old, damaged concrete to start fresh.

New installation excavation covers projects like a new concrete driveway, patio expansion, sidewalk replacement, or garage floor. We clear the footprint, remove existing material, grade the base, and prepare the site so Blount’s crew can form and pour on solid ground.

Concrete removal and demo is one of the more physically demanding parts of any residential project. Old driveways crack, heave, and eventually reach the end of their useful life. We break up the existing slab, remove the debris, and haul it away so you start your replacement project without the old material in the way.

Blount handles both sides of residential excavation work, and because we also deliver and place concrete, your project does not need a second contractor. One crew handles site prep through finished pour.

Commercial Concrete Excavation

Commercial excavation projects are typically larger in footprint and more demanding in terms of scheduling, access, and sub-base preparation. Blount Concrete works with commercial property owners and contractors on small-to-mid-scale commercial excavation throughout the North and South Towns of Greater Buffalo.

We take on:

• Small commercial site clearing and grading
• Excavation for building additions and structural expansions
• Preparation for commercial flatwork and large slab pours
• Commercial concrete removal

If your commercial project requires excavation before the pour can begin, reach out for a free estimate and we will walk the site with you.
