Northern California Trusted Experts in Excavation

Successful Results Start with Experience

Breaking ground is more than the landmark transition from design to the tangible start of a project. Earthwork is a complex, integral step in the construction process that, done correctly, initiates a reliable foundation for building precision and quality. Expertise is critical with earthwork management, since it is associated with significant, unforeseen cost variables and diverse challenges that can impact project progress. Nordby Earthwork professionals have over 30 years of experience in the industry, garnering the confidence of architects, engineers, contractors, and other industry professionals throughout California.

Grounded in Communication

In the earthwork industry, every dig involves inherent risks. Nordby Earthwork believes that establishing trusting relationships based on open dialogue and mutual respect is paramount. With the complexity of excavation projects and inevitable unknown factors beneath the surface, clear communication among all parties involved is essential to ensure safety, efficiency, and success. From understanding project specifications to navigating underground obstacles, collaboration fosters accountability, reliability, and opportunity to address challenges constructively.
