Underground Utilities
We install water mains, sanitary sewer, storm sewer and power and communications conduit for subdivisions and commercial sites. Each run goes from open trench to compacted backfill, ready for the inspector.

We turn raw land into finished, buildable lots for builders and developers. Every underground utility goes in before the streets, and each lot is left graded for its builder.

We clear and grade commercial sites, build the pad and run the utilities to the building. We bring the parking lot to base rock, and our paving and concrete subcontractors finish it.

Excavator land clearing for building sites and development parcels, with the stumps and roots pulled out. We strip and stockpile the topsoil, then rough grade the ground for the next stage.

Mass grading and cut and fill for subdivisions, commercial sites, farms and nurseries. We move the soil to the grades on the plan and compact the fill in layers.

Trenching for water lines, power conduit and drain lines across acreage and commercial sites. Every run starts with an Oregon 811 locate request and ends in compacted backfill.

French drains, curtain drains, catch basins and culverts for building sites, subdivisions, farms and nurseries. We build each system on a steady fall to an outlet, to the engineer's plan where there is one.

We build subdivision streets and private roads from the subgrade up, with the utilities under them laid first. Our concrete and paving subcontractors pour the curbs and lay the asphalt, under our management.

Long gravel driveways, farm and nursery access roads, equipment yards and construction entrances for builders and landowners. We grade the road and set the culverts, then build up the base rock to carry trucks.

We handle foundation excavation and build compacted building pads for homes on acreage, shops, barns and commercial buildings. Footings are cut to the engineer's plan, and every pad is graded to drain.

Directional drilling carries water services and power and communications conduit under roads, paved drives, parking lots and creeks. The pipe pulls back through the bore, and the surface above it stays in place.

We take down old structures and break out the concrete and asphalt under them. Our dump trucks haul the debris off, and we grade the site for the next build.

Serving Dallas and the Willamette Valley Turner Excavation is a civil construction company, and subdivision and lot development is a big part of our work. On a typical job, we take a 50-acre field and put in the utilities and streets. Then we cut and fill the lots so the builders can start their dig outs.
We also do commercial site work, from clearing and the building pad to the parking lot base. Farms and nurseries call us for grading and drainage. Our underground utility work includes a water system in Springfield and fire hydrants for a park in Newport.
Valley ground stays wet from fall into spring, so we plan the heavy earthwork for the dry months. Erosion and sediment controls are part of the work.
About Our CompanyWe put in the water, sewer, storm and dry utilities, then build the street over them. Our paving and concrete subcontractors finish the curbs and asphalt under our management.
Our excavators, dozer, water truck and dump trucks do the heavy work. Our crew and foreman run the site from the first cut to final grade.
