Excavation Contractors in Tonawanda, NY

Excavation contractors in the Town of Tonawanda work in a large, fully developed suburb. Outside the village of Kenmore, most of the town was heavily built into suburban housing in the 1940s and 1950s. The 2020 census counted 72,636 residents on 20.3 square miles, and the 2010 count listed 34,634 housing units.

Neighborhoods

Brighton, Kenilworth, Green Acres, Parkview and Sheridan Parkside are among the town's named neighborhoods, and Kenmore sits entirely inside it. Most are dense grids of single homes and doubles with detached garages.

Same-age infrastructure

Homes built in the same two decades share the same aging problems: clay laterals, settled grades, cracked driveways and garages with failing slabs. Lateral replacement, regrading and garage removal are our most common Tonawanda jobs.

Industry by the river

An industrial area lies along the town's western edge near the Niagara River, including a DuPont plant at Sheridan Drive and River Road. Former industrial land can contain fill; on commercial or redevelopment sites we plan for that.

Planning a Tonawanda job

Tonawanda's lots are mostly modest postwar parcels with a driveway and a detached or attached garage. Access is usually manageable with a compact excavator. Because so much of the town drains toward the Niagara River and Ellicott and Two Mile creeks through a flat landscape, grades are gentle, and fixing a wet yard often means creating slope where there is barely any.

Kenmore and the town

The village of Kenmore sits inside the town but has its own permits. Properties outside the village go through the Town of Tonawanda. We confirm which applies.

Garages and slabs

Many 1940s and 1950s detached garages have cracked, heaved slabs and failing walls. We remove the structure and slab, haul debris and leave a graded or compacted area for a new garage or lawn.
