Questions
How do I calculate material quantities needed?
Measure depth, width, and length in feet. Multiply these dimensions then divide by 27 to convert to cubic yards. Our team can help verify calculations.
What delivery options are available?
We deliver loads from 1 to 21 cubic yards. Small loads (5 yards or less) within local areas cost $50. Delivery charges may vary for special materials.
Can you replace septic tanks?
Yes, we're licensed septic installers. Contact South Nation Conservation Authority first for permits, then we can handle complete septic system replacements.
What equipment do you use for asphalt grinding?
We use a Wirtgen W50DC 1/2 Meter Milling Machine and S185 Bobcat with sweeper for precise asphalt surface preparation.
Are you available for emergency projects?
We focus on scheduled projects but maintain flexibility for urgent requests. Contact our office to discuss specific timing requirements.
Do you work with other contractors?
Yes, we collaborate with construction companies and landscapers. Our equipment and expertise complement other trades on shared projects.
