Precise Digging For Every Part Of The Job
Foundations, basements, utility lines and general site work all start the same way — with digging that's accurate to depth and grade. Jerry Cheshire Land Clearing Services brings the excavators and experience to dig it right the first time, whether it's a footing trench for a new build or a full basement cut.
With equipment sized for anything from a small utility trench to a full commercial excavation, and over 50 years of local experience, we dig to spec, handle the rock and hard ground when it comes up, and leave the site ready for what's next.
