Foundation & Mass Excavation
The work that sets the rest of the job up for success. We cut to plan for footings, basements, and large building pads, remove unsuitable material when needed, and leave a clean, level subgrade ready for forming and concrete. Every cut is guided by the drawings so elevations, setbacks, and bearing conditions match the engineer’s intent.
Grading & levelling
Turn a raw excavation into a construction ready surface. We establish rough grades for drainage and building pads, then finish the elevations shown on the drawings. Slopes, swales, and compacted subgrade are set so water moves away from structures and the site meets design, inspection, and long term performance requirements.
Drainage & Piping
We excavate and install storm lines, swales, catch basins, and subsurface drains so runoff is collected and directed to the correct discharge points. Proper falls, bedding, and backfill are critical. When water is managed at the groundworks stage, foundations, paving, and landscaping stay drier and last longer.
Trenching & Utility
Detailed excavation, locating existing services, cutting to the required depth and alignment, and preparing the trench for new pipes and conduits. We handle bedding, placement support, and compacted backfill so utilities sit at the correct grade and the ground above them stays sound. This is the work that keeps later trades on schedule and reduces the risk of strikes, settlement, or failed inspections.

Demolition & removal
Demolition is often the first step in preparing a site for new work. We remove buildings, concrete, old foundations, and other obstructions, separate materials where required, and haul waste off your site. The goal is a clean, accessible site that can move straight into excavation, grading, and foundation work without leftover hazards or delays.
Other Services
In addition, Rialto Excavation handles the related site work that often sits around those core jobs. The aim is that you only need one contractor who can take the ground from first cut through to a usable, finished surface. We clear vegetation, topsoil, debris, and leftover materials so the site is accessible and ready for excavation. This includes grubbing, stripping, and organising access and spoil so the main groundworks can start without delay.
Once the ground is graded and compacted, we can complete driveways, parking areas, and other paved surfaces. Preparing the base correctly is what makes the pavement last, so this work follows naturally from our excavation and grading.
We build and restore site access, gravel pads, and working platforms for construction or finished use. That includes placing and compacting granular material to the required levels so vehicles and equipment can move safely. Where the site is not straightforward, we remove rock, soft spots, and material that will not support a foundation or pavement, then replace it with suitable fill and compact it to spec.
After the excavation and installations are complete, we restore disturbed areas, tidy the site, and leave it ready for building, landscaping, or handover.
If your project needs more than a single trench or foundation cut, we can scope these extras as part of one programme. Get in touch with the drawings or a brief description of the site and we will confirm what falls inside our work.
Typical Excavation Costs in Rialto, CA
Every job is different, but property owners always ask what a project will cost. These are typical price ranges for a standard residential job in each of our services. Southern California pricing often lands toward the higher end of national averages.
Foundation & Mass Excavation: about $1,500 to $10,000 for a typical home foundation cut
Standard soil is commonly priced at roughly $2.50 to $15 per cubic yard, and equipment with an operator typically runs $100 to $300 per hour. Rock, tight access, deep basements, and hauling excess soil off site push the price up.
Grading & Levelling: about $1,000 to $5,000 for a typical backyard or building pad
Fine grading averages about $0.40 to $1.00 per square foot and rough grading about $1 to $2 per square foot. A full quarter-acre residential lot commonly lands in the $4,400 to $10,900 range.
Drainage & Piping: about $2,000 to $10,000 for a typical yard drainage or French drain system
French drains generally run $10 to $50 per linear foot installed, and surface drainage trench systems about $10 to $30 per linear foot. Catch basins, dry wells, and longer runs add to the total.
Trenching & Utility: about $500 to $1,200 for a basic 100 ft trench
Utility lines cost more once pipe and connections are included. Typical installed ranges are $30 to $50 per foot for water lines, $40 to $180 per foot for sewer lines, $6 to $14 per foot for electrical, and $12 to $25 per foot for gas.
Demolition & Removal: about $6,000 to $25,000 for a typical house, often higher in Southern California
Whole-house demolition averages $4 to $10 per square foot, with Southern California jobs that include permits, hazmat testing, and full haul-away often running $15,000 to $45,000. Smaller jobs are far less: a garage is about $1,000 to $5,000, a driveway $600 to $1,800, a concrete slab $1 to $3 per square foot, and pool removal $4,000 to $16,000.
These figures are general estimates, not a quote. Your final price depends on the size of the job, soil conditions, site access, permits, hazardous material testing, and hauling distance. For an exact number, call (909) 233-6784 or use the form above for a free, no-obligation estimate.
