Excavation & Site Work services in Marrero
Marrero runs south from the river along Barataria Boulevard toward the marshes and Bayou Segnette. Near the river, the ground is the firmer soil of the natural levee; south of the Westbank Expressway, it turns to soft, low, wet ground over old swamp, and Estelle and the southern subdivisions sit on fill. Ditches and canals carry the rain to parish pumps, and yards that were never raised hold water for days. Many homes date from the 1960s through the 1990s and now have settling slabs and broken sewer lines. In Marrero we raise and regrade low yards, dig sewer and drain line trenches, clean and reshape drainage ditches, remove cracked slabs and drives, and prepare pads for sheds, garages and additions.

Permits and local rules
Marrero has no city government, so Jefferson Parish is the permit authority, and parish drainage servitudes along ditches must stay clear. Louisiana 811 must hear from you at least 48 hours ahead of the dig, weekends and holidays excluded. We line up the parish rules for your property before work.
