Excavation in Chelan, Washington
Chelan is home. It is also where a lot of the hardest ground in the valley is, and most of what makes a job here difficult shows up before the first bucket of dirt moves.
Working ground in Chelan
- Lots above the lake sit on steep benches, so how a machine gets on and off the site often decides the whole approach.
- Ground through the valley runs from loose glacial material to rock, and the two can turn up on the same parcel.
- Long private driveways off the county roads take the brunt of the runoff, which is why so many of them need reshaping rather than more gravel.
- Winter access and frozen ground change what is worth starting and when.

Do you work on the steep lots above the lake?
Often, but access has to be looked at first. Send us a photo of the way in and the pitch of the ground and we will tell you what will fit before anyone commits to a date.
How soon can you look at a job in Chelan?
Call or text and we will tell you where we are at. Being local means a look at the site is usually a short drive rather than a scheduling exercise.
