Lassiter Excavating is proud to provide reliable, detail-focused excavation and drilling services throughout Oakland and the greater East Bay. With decades of experience working in both residential neighborhoods and commercial job sites, our team brings the skill and equipment needed to navigate Oakland’s mix of hillside terrain, older infrastructure, and diverse soil conditions. We support homeowners, contractors, and property developers with excavation work that’s done right the first time.
Site Preparation for Oakland Projects
Whether you’re preparing a lot in the Oakland flats or working on a hillside property in Montclair, proper site prep makes all the difference. We handle clearing, grading, and soil stabilization to create a dependable base for new construction. Our crews are trained to work efficiently in tight-access areas, steep parcels, and locations where drainage and compaction are critical.
Excavation & Structure Removal
Oakland’s mix of modern builds and older homes requires careful excavation planning. We provide digging for foundations, additions, basements, and utilities, as well as safe removal of outdated structures or debris. Our operators use modern equipment and proven techniques to work cleanly and minimize disruption to neighboring properties and busy streets.
Pier Drilling & Deep Foundation Work
For projects that require reinforced support—common in Oakland’s sloped and earthquake-prone regions—Lassiter Excavating offers expert pier drilling. We drill structural piers for additions, retaining walls, decks, and major remodels, always coordinating closely with engineers to meet exact specifications. Our deep foundation work is known for precision and consistency.
Retaining Walls & Slope Reinforcement
From stabilizing hillside lots to adding usable outdoor space, we design and install retaining walls that improve both safety and aesthetics. Our retaining wall systems help control erosion, support foundations, and enhance the long-term stability of Oakland properties.
Focused on Safety & Utility Protection
With Oakland’s older underground infrastructure, safety is essential. We thoroughly locate utilities and follow strict procedures to keep your project on track and protect surrounding properties. Contact our team here to lean more.
