Local excavation, done right.
Glen & Dale's vetted network of local excavation contractors handles digs, site prep, septic, and grading throughout Rothesay. Rothesay is one of Greater Saint John's most established communities — large lots, mature trees, properties along the Kennebecasis River, and neighborhoods like Renforth and Gondola Point.
Rothesay's mix of riverfront properties, established subdivisions, and rolling terrain means a lot of our work here involves drainage, grading slopes, and prep for substantial outdoor builds — pools, additions, garages.
We also design and build retaining walls in Rothesay — a dedicated specialty given the slopes around the Kennebecasis Valley. Small jobs welcome. A lot of bigger excavation companies won't touch a 4-hour post-hole job or a 30-foot trench. We will. From single-day residential work to multi-day site prep, we show up for any size project in Rothesay.
