About earthwork contractors in Richmond
The 12 earthwork contractors working Richmond, Virginia spread across the trades rather than stacking in one: excavation (7), demolition (5), drainage & ponds (3) and driveways & gravel roads (2). Budget Sealers Inc. leads the list on Google at 5.0 stars from 7 reviews; across all 9 rated listings the average is 4.2, and 6 sit at 4.5 or higher. 1 of the 12 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 Richmond 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 Richmond: questions
How much does excavation cost in Richmond?
Excavation in Richmond 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 VA permit and dig-safe process adds. Call two or three of the 12 contractors above and describe the same scope to each, or the numbers will not be comparable.
Can one contractor in Richmond clear, grade and dig?
Yes, and it is usually the cheaper route because you are not paying for a second mobilization. BJ's Hauling LLC covers 4 of the earthwork trades on our records, the widest in Richmond: demolition, driveways & gravel roads, hauling & materials and snow removal.
