Excavation & Site Work in York County Maine
Excavation, Grading & Site Preparation
Most surface failures start below ground level. Poor grading, soft material, and trapped water lead to settling, cracking, and premature deterioration. Fortier Property Services provides excavation and site work across York County Maine so finished surfaces perform correctly long term.
We prepare properties for concrete, asphalt, drainage correction, and general improvements by shaping and stabilizing the ground before installation begins.
Drainage Systems
Water management protects both structures and paved surfaces. We install drainage solutions that move water away from buildings and traffic areas.
- Structured drainage
- French drains
- Runoff redirection
Proper drainage reduces erosion, frost movement, and standing water problems.
Septic System Installation & Repair
We excavate and prepare areas for septic system installation and repair based on site conditions and existing system layout. Whether installing a new system or addressing a failed component, proper excavation and grading are critical for long term performance.
- Septic tank excavation and replacement
- Leach field installation and repair
- Site grading and access around existing systems
Careful excavation helps ensure proper function, protects surrounding areas, and supports reliable operation over time.
Gravel & Reclaim Driveways
Gravel driveways require shaping and compaction to remain usable year round. We install new surfaces and reclaim existing ones by reshaping and compacting the base.
- New gravel driveways
- Regrading and reclaiming
- Base preparation for paving
A properly prepared base improves traction and prevents washouts.
Utilities Excavation
We excavate trenches for underground utilities and prepare areas for service installation.
- Sewer lines
- Water lines
- Underground utilities
Work is completed with proper depth and backfill to prevent settling after installation.
