Excavation & Site Work in Monroeville, PA

Excavation & Site Work services in Monroeville

Monroeville sits east of Pittsburgh along the Parkway East and the old William Penn Highway, and it mixes postwar neighborhoods with a large commercial strip. The terrain is steep in places, with valleys draining toward Turtle Creek, and many lots were cut and filled when the subdivisions went in. Fill placed decades ago does not always behave: it can settle under a patio or slide on a slope after a wet spring. Underneath is clay over shale and sandstone with coal seams in parts of the region, so a deep dig can turn up layered rock. Commercial pads and parking lots along the business corridor bring larger grading and drainage work. For homeowners, we regrade yards, rebuild walls and drains, replace laterals, dig for additions and garages and remove old pools, decks and slabs.
