Excavation & Site Work services in Harvey
Harvey sits on the West Bank around the Harvey Canal, a mix of industrial yards along the water, shopping along Manhattan Boulevard and neighborhoods of slab homes behind them. Most of Harvey is low, soft ground: clay and organic soils over old swamp, with groundwater just a few feet down. Areas like Woodmere were built in the 1970s and 1980s on fill that has settled, so driveways sink and pipes crack at the slab. Drainage depends on ditches, canals and parish pumps. Our work in Harvey is a mix of residential and commercial: sewer and drain lines, raising low yards with compacted fill, removing sunken slabs and driveways, pads for sheds and garages, and site work for small commercial lots.
