Vancouver, WA Fire Prevention

While the instances of wildfires in and around Vancouver, WA may not be as prevalent as across the border in Oregon, fire prevention is still something that every homeowner and property owner should be concerned about.

The hot dry summers in our area are somewhat mitigated on the north side of the Columbia, however, the same concerns are present there. Dry grass and underbrush are the perfect fuel for sparks from errant cigarettes, campfires, overheated cars, even lightning. By clearing out these fuel sources around your home and on your property, you help mitigate the possibility of fires easily catching and spreading in your area.

Call the excavation perfectionists to discuss fire prevention and mitigation on your property. Our equipment helps make quick work of it and lets you get back to enjoying your summer, worry-free.

Vancouver, WA Mulching

Whether you’ve got a backyard garden or even a large farm that needs to be mulched, STE can help. Scott Tankersley takes both from his years growing up on a produce farm as well as his excavation experience and combines them to aid Vancouver, WA residents and even companies who are in need of mulching experience.

By leveraging the equipment they already have, Scott and his team can come in, get the job done quickly and leave you more time to do the other things you need to get done. Depending on the exact requirements, we can either spread the mulch you’ve already acquired, help you determine what you need, or even turn excess brush into a mulch that’s ready to use.

Give Scott Tankersley Excavation a call today to find out how we can help you lift the mulching burden from your shoulders.

Vancouver, WA Retaining Walls

It happens all too often – the house or property you purchased that was once “perfect” now needs improvement. Maybe the property changed, maybe your goals did. But what was once a “gently sloping backyard” now looks like a hilly place you don’t want to walk up and down over and over again. You need a retaining wall built in order to turn your space into something useable again.

Or perhaps your Vancouver, WA, retaining wall needs are more… massive. Maybe you want to take a large plot of land, grade it and make it into a useable commercial space, subdivide it or just build a parking lot on it. But it simply has too much slope to it.

Regardless of the reason, Scott Tankersley Excavation is the place to call. For more than a decade Scott and his crew have been involved in moving dirt and rocks day after day. Retaining walls built right are their bread and butter and, more than that, they love building them. Reach out to the excavation perfectionists today and get the solution to your problems locked in.

Land Clearing in Vancouver, WA

Perhaps it’s a piece of property you inherited or purchased that is so overgrown you can’t even see what’s there. Perhaps it’s your own property that you’ve let go and avoided dealing with the ever-increasing size of brush and growing thickets. Regardless, STE has the answer.

You see, we have the same problem for many of our excavation jobs. The first step is often clearing off the land in order to actually be able to see the land and determine what we can do and where.

The same equipment we use to clear off large tracts of land can be used to similar effect for smaller areas as well. Regardless of the size, small in your backyard or a pasture with dozens of acres of overgrown bushes, give Scott Tankersley Excavation a call.
