What We Do
Excavation, road construction, land clearing, and utility installation for commercial, industrial, and municipal clients throughout Central Virginia and beyond.
Site Preparation
Our team specializes in commercial and industrial site preparation and grading that set the foundation for successful builds. As a trusted excavation and grading company in the Richmond and surrounding markets since 1956, we ensure every job is completed safely, efficiently, and to specification.
How We Work
We begin with an itemized and detailed estimate that helps define the excavation process and a timeline to substantial completion.
Our fleet of GPS integrated heavy equipment provides precise cuts and grades for every project regardless of complexity or scale.
Clean execution refers to not only site cleanliness, but also environmental and operational cleanliness throughout the project.
We provide turn-key site preparation that helps propel your project into the next phase quickly and efficiently.
Road Construction
Our road construction crews deliver turn-key commercial, municipal, and industrial projects for our clients. From new roadway builds to complete rehabilitation, we specialize in keeping people and goods moving safely and efficiently.
Our Process
Ensure proper grade, drainage, and traffic flow for every project from the start.
Strictly adhering to industry standards as well as state and local specifications.
Modern equipment and technology keep our projects on track and under budget.
We meet DOT and municipal standards for every road we build or rehabilitate.
Site Clearing
Whether you're developing a commercial site or expanding infrastructure, our team provides comprehensive land clearing services to remove trees, brush, stumps, and debris efficiently while protecting the environment and preserving what matters.
Our Process
Efficient removal of trees, brush, and overgrowth while protecting the environment and preserving what matters.
Complete stump removal and debris hauling to leave your site clean and development-ready.
Precision grubbing and topsoil stripping to prepare the ground surface for the next phase of your project.
Installation of erosion and sediment control measures to protect surrounding areas and meet environmental requirements.
Underground Utilities
Our experienced crews perform the excavation, grading, trenching, backfilling, and site preparation needed to support water, sanitary sewer, storm drainage, conduit, and other underground infrastructure. We coordinate closely with project owners, general contractors, engineers, and utility contractors to keep work progressing safely and efficiently.
Our Process
We review project plans, existing utility information, site conditions, access requirements, and the proposed sequence of work before excavation begins.
Our crews use properly sized equipment and GPS-enabled technology to excavate trenches and structures safely and to the required lines and grades.
We prepare stable trench bottoms and place specified bedding materials to support pipe, conduit, and drainage structures.
Backfill is placed and compacted to help protect installed utilities, minimize settlement, and prepare the area for pavement or final grading.
Environmental Compliance
Stanley Construction provides erosion and sediment control services that protect job sites, neighboring properties, and local waterways throughout every phase of construction. Our crews install and maintain control measures that keep projects compliant with state and local regulations while minimizing the environmental impact of site disturbance, from initial clearing through final stabilization.
Our Process
Installing silt fence and other perimeter control measures to contain sediment at the source before it can leave the site.
Protecting storm drains, inlets, and outfalls from sediment intrusion throughout the course of construction.
Stabilizing slopes and disturbed areas with erosion control matting and blankets to prevent soil loss.
Hydroseeding and mulching disturbed ground to establish permanent vegetative cover and long-term erosion control.
