Dunbar Excavation offers a comprehensive suite of excavation services designed to meet the diverse needs of our clients in Nanaimo and beyond. From residential landscaping projects to large-scale construction ventures, our experienced team is equipped to handle every aspect of the excavation process with precision and efficiency.

Site Preparation is the first step in any construction project, ensuring that the land is ready for building with proper grading and leveling. Land Clearing involves the removal of trees, shrubs, and other vegetation to create a clean slate for your project. Once the main excavation work is done, Backfilling is essential to fill in any excavated areas and provide a stable base for construction.

For projects requiring more specialized excavation, we offer Rock Breaking to tackle tough, rocky terrain and Swimming Pool Excavation to create the perfect space for your new pool. Our Trenching services are ideal for installing utilities such as water, sewer, and electrical lines, ensuring they are laid out correctly and efficiently. Finally, our Soil Removal services ensure that any excess soil is promptly and properly disposed of, leaving your site clean and ready for the next phase of your project.
