Excavation & Site Work services in Ross Township
Ross Township is a North Hills suburb just past the city line, with McKnight Road's stores on one side and quiet residential hillsides on the other. Many houses were built from the 1920s through the 1960s, on lots carved into slopes, so stepped yards, block walls and garages tucked under the house are common. The soil is clay over shale and sandstone, and water coming off the hill above often ends up against a basement wall or behind a retaining wall that has started to lean. Storm runoff from busy commercial areas adds pressure on local streams. Our Ross jobs are mostly residential: basement wall excavation for waterproofing, footer drain and lateral replacement, rebuilding the dig behind failing walls, regrading to steer water around houses, and garage and patio demolition on tight lots.
