Excavation & Site Work services in Belle Chasse
Belle Chasse is the gateway to Plaquemines Parish, on the West Bank south of New Orleans and next to the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base. It sits on the natural levee of the Mississippi, a strip of firmer ground with marsh and swamp on both sides. The soil is silty near the river and turns to soft, wet clay away from it, with a high water table everywhere. Lots are larger than in the city, with live oaks, citrus trees and many homes built up on fill or raised. Belle Chasse jobs for us include pads for new homes, garages and shops, sewer and drain lines, raising low yards, culverts and drives, and removing old slabs and outbuildings, all with an eye on drainage to the parish ditches.

Permits and local rules
Belle Chasse is unincorporated, so Plaquemines Parish handles permits, and much of the parish has flood elevation rules for buildings and fill. We could not confirm the parish's specific digging rules from an official page, so we check them for your address. Louisiana 811 needs 48 hours of notice, working days only.
