New Subdivisions on Old Farmland

Excavation contractors in Byron Township work in one of the fastest-growing parts of Kent County. The township had 17,553 residents in 2000, 20,317 in 2010 and 26,927 in 2020, on about 36 square miles. Byron Center, an unincorporated community, sits at its center, and SpartanNash is headquartered here.

Building on farmland

Much of the growth is new subdivisions and homes on former farm fields. Site prep, foundation digs, utility trenches and grading are steady work. Old farm drainage tile sometimes turns up and needs to be rerouted rather than broken.

Flat ground

Flat former fields drain slowly, especially on loamy till with a seasonal water table. New lots benefit from grading and drains planned at the start rather than fixed later.

Septic or sewer?

Before we quote, we confirm whether the home is on public sewer and water or on a private well and septic system. Township properties often have both arrangements on the same road. Septic work follows the design approved by the local health department; we dig the tank and field to that plan and keep machines off the field area. Well lines are trenched below frost and kept clear of the septic system.

Typical Byron jobs

SpartanNash and traffic
