Excavation & Site Work services in River Ridge
River Ridge is an unincorporated part of Jefferson Parish next to Harahan, known for deep lots, old oaks and quiet streets off Jefferson Highway. Like Harahan, it sits on the natural levee of the Mississippi, so the soil is silty and firmer near the river and softer as you move toward the back of the neighborhood. The deep lots mean long sewer and water runs from the street to the house, and big trees whose roots run across the yard. Many homes have been added on to over the years, leaving old patios, walkways and slabs under the lawn. In River Ridge, we dig sewer and water line trenches, remove buried concrete, regrade yards, prepare pads for additions and garages, and dig pools between the trees.

Permits and local rules
River Ridge has no city government, so Jefferson Parish issues permits, and work on the parish right-of-way has its own approval. A Louisiana 811 request has to go in 48 hours or more ahead, not counting weekends and holidays. We look up the parish rules for your lot before work starts.
