Excavation Perfectionists

in beaverton, oR 

From its very early days of swamps, marshes and beaver dams to being the home of Nike and Reser’s Fine Foods, Beaverton has grown in unique ways over the years. While the actual map of the city may look… spotty, our focus is usually on the ground and how we can help our clients. Whether land clearing, building retaining walls, mulching or prepping their site in order to build a custom home, Scott Tankersley Excavation loves the time we spend in Beaverton. It kind of feels like home.

Custom Home Site Preparation in Beaverton, OR

That desire for the feeling of home is often what drives one to design and build their own custom home. Different from everything they’ve seen, yet familiar. Matched to their family, their lifestyle, comfortable and welcoming, it’s something that can be the center of a family’s life for decades or even generations to come.

That longevity starts with a properly prepared plot of land. Custom home site prep is the kind of work that you really only have one shot at. Once construction of the home has begun, there’s not too many ways to go back and shore things up of move sewer lines. Yes, it can be done. However, it’s far better to do the job right the first time.

That is one of Scott Tankersley’s guiding principle. As his family has been working in Oregon dirt for more than sixty years, he knows the work he does not only endures, but carries the weight of the family name. He always makes sure the excavation work is completed to his demanding satisfaction because he knows it’s a family that will be living there for possibly generations.

If this sounds like the kind of work you’d like to have done for your custom home site prep, give the excavation perfectionists a call today.

Beaverton, OR Fire Prevention

Every so often the summer wildfires get a little too close to Beaverton for comfort. Admittedly, this may be on the outskirts of the town, it’s still a concern to people who live here.

But what does fire need to spread? An abundance of summer-dry grass and underbrush is a good start. A big log on a campfire doesn’t burn quickly but surround it with smaller pieces of kindling and dry wood and it’ll catch fire in a bit.

Now imagine that the underbrush and dry grass on your property is the kindling. The big log? It could be trees, it could be a barn or an ADU or even your primary home. Scott Tankersley Excavation can come out, take a look at your situation and make short work of what could take multiple weekends for you to take care of on your own.

Give us a call today and see how much easier it is to have the excavation perfectionists take care of things for you.

Beaverton, OR Mulching

Beaverton isn’t really a town that pops to mind when thinking about mulching services. However, if you take a closer look, you’ll be surprised by a few things.

First, the boundaries of Beaverton contain a fair number of wider plots and natural areas. That means land that can be used for anything from small farms to large gardens to even small gardens. And with the continuing desire for more natural foods (and seemingly ever-increasing food prices), there is always a push for people to farm more and subsequently mulch more.

Second, is the realization that people may want to grow more, but there’s a lot of work involved that they may not have the time for or be physically up to the task. Luckily, that’s where Scott Tankersley Excavation comes in. With our experience and equipment, we can make short work of projects that could have eaten up several weekends in a row.

Everybody needs a little help now and then. If you need help with mulching, regardless of the scope of the project, give us a call. We’ll take a look at what you need and get you sorted out.

Beaverton, OR Retaining Walls

For most of us, a retaining wall is something that doesn’t even likely register in our minds when we see one. Unless, of course, we’re thinking about building one.

For the Scott Tankersley Excavation crew, that’s not the case. While the average person probably doesn’t recognize a retaining wall when they see one, STE sees one and wonders how it was done. Is it a cantilevered wall or a gravity retaining wall? Are those rock facades or did they build it with just actual boulders? How did they backfill it? Did they use proper drainage?

If you need a retaining wall built on your Beaverton, OR, property, give the excavation perfectionists a call. We move dirt all day every day and we know how to make it stay where you want it to stay as well. Call today.
