Professional Excavating Contractor in Philadelphia, PA
When I started All Around Removal Philadelphia over three decades ago, I never imagined I'd be helping families across neighborhoods like Fishtown, Northern Liberties, and South Philly transform their properties through professional excavation work. Just last month, I worked with a homeowner in Manayunk who needed their backyard completely regraded after years of flooding issues - something all too common with Philadelphia's unique topography and aging infrastructure that affects both drainage systems and roof water management.
As a family-owned excavating contractor serving Pennsylvania for more than 30 years, I understand that every excavation project represents a significant investment in your property and budget. Whether you're dealing with foundation issues in a century-old rowhome in Center City, need site clearing for home improvement projects, or require emergency excavation services after storm damage, you need a contractor who knows Philadelphia's soil conditions, permit requirements, and neighborhood-specific challenges throughout the Delaware Valley.
What sets me apart as your local excavating contractor in Philadelphia isn't just our three decades of experience - it's our deep understanding of this city's unique construction landscape. From navigating the tight spaces between rowhomes to working around plumbing and utility networks, we've handled excavation projects that other contractors simply can't manage. Our customer service approach means treating every customer like family.
I've built my reputation on delivering precise, efficient excavation services while treating every property like it's my own. When you choose All Around Removal Philadelphia for your excavating needs, you're choosing a local partner who's been part of this community since before many of the new developments you see around the city even existed.

Pennsylvania property owners often need sidewalk removal for utility work or property improvements.

We handle both residential sidewalk projects and larger commercial sidewalk replacement jobs, ensuring proper drainage considerations.

When demolition requires precision over power, our concrete breaking services deliver controlled removal of concrete structures. Perfect for Philadelphia's tight spaces where traditional demolition isn't practical, we use specialized equipment to break concrete without disturbing surrounding structures, plumbing, or underground utilities.

Our concrete cutting services provide precise cuts for utility access, renovation projects, and structural modifications. Using diamond blade technology, we deliver clean cuts in Philadelphia's diverse concrete structures while minimizing dust and noise - important considerations for our densely populated neighborhoods and commercial districts throughout Pennsylvania.
