Excavation in Farmington, Davis County
Farmington is the Davis County seat, and it covers a lot of ground between the mountains and Farmington Bay. The east side is older bench neighborhoods on sloped lots. The west side has filled in with newer subdivisions and the development around Station Park. Those two halves of the city sit on very different ground, and a quote that works on one side will not always fit the other.
That split shows up in the dirt. Up on the bench, soil is rockier and most lots have some grade to them. Down on the west side, closer to the bay and its wetlands, the ground is softer clay and the water table can sit high, which changes how a basement dig is planned and how the backfill gets compacted. On a wet west-side lot, it can pay to schedule the dig for a drier part of the year.
Work in Farmington runs from new construction to backyard jobs. General contractors need foundation digs and site prep on new lots. Homeowners in finished subdivisions want yards regraded, pads leveled, or a trampoline set flush with the lawn. On the east side, older homes sometimes have a shed or outbuilding that needs to come down first. Trenches for water, power and drainage lines round out the list.

The jobs that come up in Farmington
- Foundation & basement dig-outs
New homes on the west side sit on soft ground near the bay, so the foundation dig has to be planned for it.
- Site prep & land clearing
Builders on new Farmington lots need the ground cleared and set up before anything goes vertical.
- Grading & leveling
From sloped bench yards to flat west-side lots, the finish grade decides where the water ends up.
