What Eliot Homeowners Ask Us

Do you actually come out to Eliot?

Yes. Eliot is one of the Seacoast towns we work in, out of Lebanon, Maine. The field replacement above is one of our jobs there.

Can you do the site work for our addition?

Yes. Customers have hired us for exactly that, from the site work for an addition to demolition and tree removal on the same property. The foundation dig, grading and utility trenches are all on our list.

We bought a wooded lot in Eliot. Can you get it ready to build?

Yes. Clearing, grading, drainage, the foundation dig and trenching for utility lines are all work we do, so one company can take the lot from trees to ready for your builder.

Our septic field failed. Can you replace it?

Yes, that is the job pictured above. In Maine a new or replacement system needs an application prepared by a licensed site evaluator, and the local plumbing inspector issues the permit.

Our lot is near the river. Does that change anything?

It can. Land within 250 feet of tidal water is in Maine's shoreland zone, and in Eliot that takes in property along the Piscataqua. Earth moving there can need a permit from the town's code enforcement office first. Send us the address and we will tell you if your lot is in it.

What will it cost?

We price each job after seeing the lot. The estimate is free and you hear back the same business day.
