Why homeowners pick Tri-County
We call Miss Utility before the bucket goes in the ground. It is a safety requirement and the only responsible way to excavate.
Excavator and skid steer access keeps the workflow controlled. You are not waiting on a rental operator to fit the job into someone else’s schedule.
Electricians, plumbers, and builders bring us in to trench, dig, and grade so their crews stay on the skilled work. We handle the dirt; you handle the trade.
Details
Tri-County Construction handles excavation, dirt work, and site preparation across Delaware as a standalone service. That includes land clearing, excavation for utilities like water lines and electrical conduit, trenching, site grading, grading for drainage, fill, and general site prep — whether you are clearing a lot, running service to an outbuilding, or getting ground ready for the next phase of construction.
A lot of our excavation work is for other local contractors. Electricians, plumbers, and builders call us to trench for electrical, plumbing, and water lines, grade a site, or move dirt so their crews can focus on the skilled trade. Homeowners call with practical problems too — a yard that floods, a lot that needs grading before a build, or utilities that need a clean trench. We bring owned excavator and skid steer equipment so the work stays on our schedule, not a rental operator’s.
Miss Utility / 811 is called before every dig — no exceptions. We grade for positive drainage so water moves away from structures and usable areas, document final grade so the next trade knows exactly what was completed, and haul off or stockpile spoil based on your direction. We do not quote dirt work by a blind per-yard guess over the phone, because access, soil, and haul distance change every project — every job gets a free on-site estimate.
