About earthwork contractors in Phenix City

Excavation dominates the Phenix City list: 6 of the 8 contractors show it, with driveways & gravel roads (2) and septic systems (2) behind it. Bill's Septic Service leads the list on Google at 5.0 stars from 12 reviews; across all 6 rated listings the average is 4.7, and 4 sit at 4.5 or higher. 1 of the 8 cover three or more trades. That matters when a lot has to go from raw to pad-ready: a firm that clears, grades and digs keeps the job off a second mobilization, and mobilizations are where budgets slip. Prices in Phenix City are set per job, not off a rate card, so describe one scope to two or three of these firms and compare what comes back. Every listing is compiled from public Google Maps business data (our harvest ran July 2026), and a trade we do not show is one we found no evidence of, not one the firm turns down. Updated for 2026.

Excavation in Phenix City: questions

How much does excavation cost in Phenix City?

Excavation in Phenix City is quoted by the job or the machine day, not off a price list. A small residential dig commonly lands between $1,500 and $5,000; what moves it is access, how far the spoil has to travel, whether you hit rock, and what the AL permit and dig-safe process adds. Call two or three of the 8 contractors above and describe the same scope to each, or the numbers will not be comparable.

Can one contractor in Phenix City clear, grade and dig?

Yes, and it is usually the cheaper route because you are not paying for a second mobilization. Dirt Dobbers Inc covers 4 of the earthwork trades on our records, the widest in Phenix City: excavation, trenching & utilities, driveways & gravel roads and concrete & foundations. Use the filters above to stack the trades your job needs and see who covers all of them.

Which Phenix City contractors install septic systems?

2 of the Phenix City listings carry septic installation. That is installers, not tank pumpers: we drop the pump-and-haul outfits because a new tank, drain field or leach bed is an excavation job. Septic work is permitted and usually needs a perc test before anyone digs, so start that conversation well before you want the machine on site.

Bill's Septic Service is the highest-rated earthwork contractor in our Phenix City list, at 5.0 stars from 12 Google reviews. Of the 8 contractors working Phenix City, 4 are rated 4.5 stars or higher (the list averages 4.7).
