Serving the Cowichan Valley Regional District
Excavation in Duncan
Ladysmith Excavating works as local excavation contractors in Duncan, serving properties in the City of Duncan and North Cowichan. We handle site preparation, basement excavation, land clearing and drainage for homes and small commercial sites. We walk your property with you for a free estimate and arrange BC 1 Call utility locates before we dig.
City lots, subdivisions and valley acreage
We work on tight city lots in Duncan, suburban yards in North Cowichan, and flat valley acreage. We adjust our site preparation to your property, using compact equipment for tight town infills and larger machines for acreage grading.
Commercial and residential foundation work
We prepare sites for homes, shops and small commercial builds throughout Duncan. When we handle foundation excavation, we dig to your engineer's exact depth, keep wall trenches clean, and compact backfill so soil does not settle.
Clearing and drainage on the valley floor
We dig ditches, lay French drains and set culverts to keep flat Duncan properties clear of water. We use land clearing to remove trees, brush and stumps so you have an open space to start your build. We publish machine rates in our excavation cost guide so you know what to expect before our site walk.
