We are an excavating company with over 30 years experience. What kind of work do we do? Anything and everything dirt work related. The most common projects would be house pads, site prep, utilities, and road grading. However, we don't just stop there. We do demolition, water distribution, sewer installs, dump truck services and much more. When you call Canyon Edge Excavating LLC you get the owner bidding your project, and more than likely running the tractor. There are no huge overhead inflations with us. Give us a call!

"Canyon Edge demonstrated exceptional attentiveness and understanding throughout the process, showing genuine flexibility with both my budget and scheduling needs. I wholeheartedly recommend their services and fully intend to hire them again for future projects in the seasons and years ahead."

Customers say: Terrific value

Locally owned business specializing in septic tank pumping and installation. Additional phone number - (602) 390-5297. Additional contact name - John V Ezell.

"The septic was redone by Ducks Septic at the end of 2020. While it was being redone, there were a variety of things that were dissatisfactory, but which I ignored as I figured I would deal with it later and was just happy to be able to use the toilet and shower again. The real trouble began in 2023 when I received a notice from the county stating that the septic tanks lacked proper permits. I reached out to Ducks immediately and asked for them to rectify it. I didn't make a fuss, in fact, I just asked for a resolution and them to fix this since they were paid for this initially. My interaction with Tania, a representative from Ducks, further exacerbated the situation. Initially, she insisted I pay for the permit fees, despite my previous payment for the entire job. After a back-and-forth, she claimed she would resolve the issue at no extra cost. However, this marked the beginning of a gaslighting process. Tania purportedly communicated with the county, but as I followed up every two weeks, she provided continuous assurances without any tangible progress. Eventually, she ceased responding altogether, leaving me ignored and frustrated. I expected to have my septic completed in a timely manner, for it to done as paid, which included all permits, and for my landscape to be intact and as it started, but what I got was anything but. First off, the job took forever, the brother of the owner said he was doing it, ‘on the side’, despite not getting a discount? So we were always taken care of at night or when their employees were available. The septic took months to install, not including the time the permit wait was happening, as I understand that’s beyond their control. Secondly, our entire landscape was destroyed, causing thousands in damages. The smallest things being the very large piles of dirt left on the property and the dirt being pushed into our rocks along the inside smaller fenced portion, destroying the foundation of our fencing there. Then the major destruction being our irrigation system was moved, cut, and no longer in working condition as well as moving our entire *newly installed* fence line so it is now crooked. To add insult to injury, the permits. I now have threats from county about my septic not being permitted and thus, am apparently not allowed to use….. I guess a portapotty will work? Maybe I should have thrown a major fit from the get go? Oh, I know, maybe hired a real septic expert. This is the start. I am contemplating seeking recompense for the landscape damage, rectification of the permits, and compensation for the extensive difficulties this ordeal has caused."

FAQs for building site preparation and clearing projects in Oracle, AZ

A professional team can clear an acre of land in as little as two to twelve hours, depending on your land's condition. You'll need to consider factors like vegetation density, terrain features, and obstacles such as trees, stumps, rocks, or existing structures can increase the time required. If your land is heavily wooded or has uneven terrain, expect the process to take longer and require more effort.

If you're looking to clear land for a pasture, expect to pay between $400 and $600 per acre for forestry mulching or $500 to $5,600 per acre for conventional land clearing. When choosing a method, consider:

  • Forestry Mulching: Leaves organic material in the soil, promoting new ground cover growth.

  • Conventional Clearing: You might lose valuable topsoil during this process.

A land-clearing project typically involves several key steps to prepare your property for construction or landscaping. First, assess your land and obtain any necessary permits from your local building department. Then, professionals use specialized equipment to remove trees, stumps, brush, and vegetation. After clearing, they haul away debris and may perform grading to level the land, ensuring it's ready for your intended use.

Preparing land to build a house typically costs between $1,000 and $4,000, depending on your land's size and condition. This includes clearing space for the foundation, which may involve removing trees, stumps, brush, and leveling or grading the site. Don't forget to budget for additional costs like permits, fees, and installing utility connections such as gas lines, water lines, and sewer mains.
