Excavation Contractors in Lowell, MI

Excavation contractors in Lowell work in a small river city east of Grand Rapids, on the south bank of the Grand River just north of where the Flat River joins it. Lowell began as a trading post in 1831 and incorporated as a village in 1861. It had 4,142 residents and 1,759 housing units in 2020 on about 2.9 square miles of land, with water making up about 7 percent of its area.

Close to water

With two rivers meeting at town, many lots are within 500 feet of moving water, where Kent County requires a soil erosion permit. Low ground near the rivers may also be in a floodplain. We check both before any fill or grading.

Historic downtown

The Downtown Lowell Historic District is on the National Register. Older buildings and homes near downtown have old foundations and services, and access is tight. We bring compact equipment and plan around businesses.

Trail town

The North Country Trail Association is based in Lowell, and the trail runs just north of downtown. M-21 runs east and west through the center of town.

Typical Lowell jobs

• Foundation dig-outs on older homes
• Service lines
• Drainage near the rivers
• Garage pads

Village homes and newer edges

Homes close to downtown are often old, with original services and foundations. Toward the edges of the city, postwar and newer homes need grading, drainage and driveway work. We match the approach to the house rather than using one template.
