Comprehensive Excavating Services

Our core expertise lies in excavating. Proper site excavating is the foundation of any successful construction project, whether it is a new home, a commercial building, or essential infrastructure. We utilize a modern, well-maintained fleet of heavy equipment, operated by experienced professionals. The versatility of our equipment allows us to handle jobs of any size and complexity. For large-scale digging and earth movement, our powerful excavator units are deployed, ensuring efficient and precise removal of material. This capability is critical for basement digs, utility trenches, and preparing the ground for stable foundations.

Once the initial excavating is complete, we move into material management and site grading. This is where the reliability of our dump truck fleet is invaluable. We manage the hauling of excavated soil, rock, and debris away from the site, as well as the delivery of new aggregates and materials needed for backfilling. Every dump truck in our operation is maintained to be road-ready and efficient, contributing to a smooth, uninterrupted project flow. We also leverage compact machinery like the bobcat for precision grading, maneuvering in tight spaces, and assisting with tasks like material placement and cleanup. This combination of heavy and compact machinery ensures we are equipped for every phase of your project.

Specializing in Critical Infrastructure

Amigo Trucking & Excavating also specializes in the installation and repair of vital systems. We are experts in installing septic systems that comply with all local health and environmental regulations. Proper design and installation of septic systems are non-negotiable for properties outside of municipal sewer services, and our team ensures a seamless process from permits to final inspection. We use our precise excavator control to dig leach fields and place tanks correctly, guaranteeing long-term functionality. Furthermore, our experience extends to water systems, including trenching for main lines, installing cisterns, and connecting properties to public utility lines. Maintaining clean and reliable water systems is a priority, and our careful construction approach minimizes disruption while maximizing system integrity.

Beyond utilities, we are a key partner in road building. Whether you need a new driveway, access road for a remote property, or a full-scale private community road, we have the machinery and knowledge. Effective road building requires expert grading, proper material selection, and compaction. We utilize our dump truck fleet to bring in the necessary gravel and aggregates, and our graders and compactors prepare a durable, long-lasting surface. This attention to detail in road building ensures a solid investment for years to come.

Site Finish and Landscaping Preparation

The final steps of site preparation often involve backfilling and grading. Backfilling foundations, trenches, and retaining walls must be done correctly to prevent future settling and water issues. Our team utilizes the bobcat and smaller excavating tools to meticulously place and compact fill material, ensuring structural stability around your new infrastructure. This process is crucial for establishing the final site grade, which sets the stage for successful landscaping.

We view landscaping as the final touch that transforms a raw site into a finished, beautiful property. While we focus on the hardscaping foundation, this includes final grading, rock placement, and preparing the soil for turf or plantings. Our earth moving and construction expertise ensures the terrain is properly contoured for drainage and aesthetic appeal. For residents and businesses in Salmon Arm, choosing Amigo Trucking & Excavating means partnering with a company that handles every aspect of site work with unmatched professionalism, from the first scoop of the excavator to the final backfilling effort before planting begins. We are dedicated to the success of your project.
