Why Proper Excavation Is So Critical

Excavation isn’t just “digging a hole.” It’s a foundational phase that demands precision. One small mistake in grading or trenching can lead to structural issues, flooding, or erosion—problems that are expensive to fix once the project is already underway.

At Riggidy Diggin Excavation, we understand how to read the land, measure slopes, and account for soil types, drainage, frost lines, and elevation changes—especially in the unpredictable terrain of Southern Colorado.

We bring a level of care to excavation that you don’t often see—and our clients appreciate the results.

Our Process—From Dirt to Done

Whether you're building a new home or prepping a remote site, we follow a clear process to keep things efficient and stress-free:

Step 1 – Site Assessment and Planning

We meet you onsite (or review plans remotely), assess the layout, and walk the property. If there’s a builder involved, we coordinate directly.

Step 2 – Grading, Trenching, or Pad Prep

Depending on the scope, we’ll clear the land, excavate the necessary areas, and grade the site to meet project specs.

Step 3 – Final Cleanup and Inspection

We remove excess materials, smooth the site, and make sure it’s clean and safe for the next contractor to step in.

We don’t leave a mess. We leave a solid, ready-to-build foundation.
