02 — What we excavate

Residential digs of every kind — quoted as one job

Mini excavator working tight against a residential foundation
Every project is walked and quoted before a machine arrives. The number you sign is the number you pay.
The excavation
Basement & foundation digs
Precise digs against existing structures, with machine sizes matched to your access.
Grading & site preparation
Slopes corrected, pads levelled, drainage directed away from the house.
Utility & drainage trenching
Water, power, gas and weeping-tile trenches — located, dug and closed properly.
Soil removal & haul-away
Spoil loaded, trucked and disposed of — never left in a pile on your lawn.
And in the same contract
Backfill & compaction
Done in lifts, so nothing settles next spring.
Final grade & restoration
Lawn, beds and hardscape put back together.
Protection of what stays
Trees, fences and neighbours' property planned around.
03 — Why Adept is different

Most excavators leave when the hole is done. We put your property back together.

Adept is a landscape and construction company. The crew that digs your property is the same crew that rebuilds the grade, the beds, the steps and the lawn — inside the same fixed price. You don't hire a second contractor to fix what the first one left behind.

03 — The finished property
Graded, planted, ready to live on
One contractor, start to finish
No handoff between an excavator and a landscaper — and no gap where your yard sits torn up.
Restoration priced up front
Backfill, compaction and final grade are in the written quote — not a change order.

We dig like the people who will have to make it beautiful again — because we are.

05 — How your project runs

From first call to finished yard

The price is fixed at step three. Everything after it is our job, not yours.

Six steps
01 Contact us Four fields or one phone call. We respond within one business day.
02 Site visit We walk the property with you — access, utilities, what gets protected, what gets restored.
03 Fixed written quote One number covering the dig, haul-away, backfill, compaction and restoration. It doesn't move.
04 Excavation & haul-away Utilities located, the dig done safely, spoil trucked off the property.
05 Backfill & compaction Filled in lifts and compacted so the ground doesn't settle under next year's patio.
06 Restoration & walkthrough Final grade, lawn and beds put back together — then we walk the property with you again.
06 — Insurance & accountability
Verify us before you sign
Insurance and WCB documentation supplied on request before any agreement is signed. Operating in Calgary since 2015, digging on the same properties we landscape. If your builder or insurer needs paperwork, ask at the site visit — it comes with the quote.

“They dug our basement extension and you would never know a machine had been in the yard. The lawn and beds went back exactly as promised — same crew, same quote.”

“Three quotes, and Adept's was the only one that included hauling the soil away and fixing the grade after. The others called those extras. The final invoice matched the quote to the dollar.”

“Tight side yard, gas line, mature spruce — they planned around all of it at the site visit and nothing got damaged. Careful operators.”

“One contractor for the trench and the yard repair meant one schedule and one person to call. It was done in days, not weeks of waiting between trades.”
