How Our Process Works

You begin with a site visit where the crew evaluates soil type, access points, and utility locations to plan excavation routes and depths that match your Asheville project's requirements. Markings guide equipment operators to dig trenches or foundation areas without disturbing adjacent structures or underground lines.

Argueta's Grading and Concrete, LLC uses backhoes and excavators to remove soil systematically, ensuring clean edges and accurate measurements. Equipment and techniques adapted to the varied terrain around Asheville, including rocky areas and steep lots, keep work efficient and safe.

Excavated material gets sorted for reuse or removal, and the crew compacts the base where necessary to support foundations, utilities, or drainage infrastructure. You receive a properly prepared site ready for the next construction phase.
