With over 25 years of experience in excavation and site preparation, we understand that the key to a successful road or driveway installation lies in proper excavation, grading, and drainage management.

Road, Driveway & Parking Lot Excavation
Proper excavation is the first and most critical step in constructing a road, driveway, or parking lot that will withstand the test of time. Without a properly prepared subgrade, surfaces can develop cracks, potholes, and drainage issues.
Our Road, Driveway & Parking Lot Excavation Services Include:
- New Driveway & Roadway Excavation – Preparing land for asphalt, gravel, or concrete surfaces.
- Parking Lot Site Preparation – Excavating and leveling for commercial and industrial parking areas.
- Subgrade Stabilization & Grading – Ensuring a strong foundation for long-term durability.
- Compaction & Soil Preparation – Compacting soil to prevent shifting, settling, and pavement failure.
Whether you are installing a new road for a housing development, a driveway for a home, or a large-scale parking lot, we ensure that the excavation and preparation process meets local regulations and engineering standards.
Asphalt & Concrete Removal
When an existing road, driveway, or parking lot needs to be replaced, proper removal of old asphalt and concrete is necessary before new construction can begin. At Phillips Trucking and Excavating, we specialize in efficient and environmentally responsible pavement removal.
Our Asphalt & Concrete Removal Services Include:
- Demolition & Excavation – Removing old, damaged asphalt or concrete to clear the site for new installation.
- Debris Hauling & Recycling – Properly disposing of and recycling concrete and asphalt materials.
- Site Preparation After Removal – Grading and compacting the area for a new road, driveway, or parking lot.
- Crack & Damage Prevention – Ensuring that the underlying surface is properly excavated and compacted to prevent future issues.
Removing old, deteriorated pavement is essential for the longevity and stability of the new surface. Our team ensures that every layer of old material is properly removed so that your new installation remains smooth, durable, and resistant to wear and tear.
Erosion Control & Drainage System Installation
Effective erosion control and drainage systems are crucial for maintaining roadways, driveways, and parking lots. Without proper drainage, water accumulation can lead to soil erosion, pavement damage, and flooding issues.
Our Erosion Control & Drainage Services Include:
- Stormwater Drainage Installation – Excavating for culverts, trench drains, and underground drainage systems.
- Grading for Proper Water Flow – Ensuring surfaces are graded correctly to direct water away from structures and pavement.
- Erosion Control Solutions – Installing retaining walls, silt fences, and vegetation barriers to prevent soil displacement.
- Driveway & Roadside Ditching – Creating runoff ditches and drainage swales to manage water effectively.
Proper erosion control and drainage not only protect road and driveway surfaces but also prevent costly damage to surrounding properties. Our team ensures that all drainage solutions meet environmental regulations and local construction codes.
