French drains, backyard grading and irrigation line trenching for Meridian homes and light-commercial properties, with skid steer and mini excavator work. Veteran owned, licensed & insured.
Small Excavation Contractor in Meridian, ID
Meridian has grown fast, and a lot of homes sit in newer subdivisions. New neighborhoods bring their own kind of dirt work: backyards that hold water, yards that never drained quite right, and sprinkler systems that need new lines. Evergreen Junk Solutions handles excavation in Meridian for those smaller jobs with a skid steer and a mini excavator.
We're a veteran-owned, licensed and insured general contractor and an excavation contractor in Meridian, ID for small residential and light-commercial projects. No large earthmoving or site development, and no job is too small.
French Drain Installation in Meridian
Water that pools in a Meridian backyard after a storm or a long sprinkler cycle usually has nowhere to go. When a yard's slope isn't quite right, water ends up along the foundation, the fence line or the patio. A French drain collects that water and carries it away from the problem area. We dig the trench, install the drain, backfill and haul off the extra soil.
Backyard Grading for Newer Meridian Subdivisions
Sometimes the fix is the grade itself. We regrade and level yards so water runs away from the house instead of toward it, fill low spots, and smooth out ground that settled after construction. If the yard needs material, we bring in fill dirt or topsoil and spread it. If it has too much, we haul the extra off.
Planning new landscaping? Grading first gives new sod and beds a better start.
Sprinkler and Irrigation Line Trenching in Meridian
Many Meridian subdivisions get irrigation water through a pressurized system, often run by the Nampa & Meridian Irrigation District, that delivers water to a valve at each lot. The sprinkler lines past that valve belong to the homeowner. When you need a new line run, an old one replaced or a zone added, we dig the trench. We also trench for drainage and utility lines.

We Call 811 Before We Dig
Every Meridian job starts with an 811 call, so underground utility lines are located and marked before we dig. It protects your property, your neighbors' service and our crew.
811 doesn't mark private lines like your sprinkler system, so show us where your irrigation valve box and lines run, and we'll work around them.
