Your Local Experts for Site Work, Foundation Digs, and Land Clearing in Oneida County
From the hills of the Adirondack foothills to the foundational work for new homes and businesses across the Mohawk Valley, a successful project starts with expert excavation. Wlock Excavating LLC is a family-owned and operated contractor right here in Utica, NY, providing the reliable, high-quality site work that our Oneida County community has depended on for years.
Whether you’re building a new home in Whitesboro, adding a garage in New Hartford, or improving drainage on your property in Clinton, we understand the local terrain and soil conditions. We’re your neighbors, and we’re committed to laying the groundwork for your success with honesty and professional skill.
Your vision for your Oneida County property starts from the ground up. Let your local experts handle the heavy lifting.
We are equipped to handle the unique needs of properties across the Mohawk Valley. From the rocky soil in Marcy to the clay-heavy earth near the Mohawk River, we have the experience to prepare your site correctly.
Preparing your land is the first critical step. We expertly clear your Oneida County property of trees, brush, and debris, creating a perfect canvas for your new home, barn, or commercial building.
We provide trenching services for water, sewer, and electrical lines, connecting your property to essential utilities. We understand the requirements for utility work throughout the towns in our service area.
The integrity of your Utica-area home or addition depends on a perfectly dug foundation. We perform precise excavation for new foundations, garage slabs, and additions, ensuring a solid, level base that meets local building codes.
Removing an old shed, garage, or in-ground pool? Our excavation equipment makes quick and safe work of demolition projects across Utica and the surrounding towns, clearing your land for new possibilities.
A well-built driveway is essential for our Upstate NY winters and springs. We specialize in excavating and grading for new driveways, ensuring proper drainage to handle meltwater and rain, preventing washouts and ice patches.
With the spring thaw and heavy rains our region experiences, proper drainage is non-negotiable. We specialize in installing culverts, French drains, and other systems to protect your Oneida County property from water damage and erosion.
