Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about excavation and drainage in Syracuse and Central New York.
What excavation services do you offer in Syracuse, NY?
Xtreme Companies provides excavation, grading and leveling, French drain and drainage system installation, and site preparation throughout Syracuse NY and Central New York. We handle both residential and commercial projects, from backyard drainage fixes to full site prep for new concrete work. Call (315) 552-4030 to discuss your project.
Can you fix standing water or a soggy yard?
Yes. Standing water is usually a grading or drainage problem. We evaluate how water moves across your property, then correct the grade or install a French drain or drainage system to capture and redirect it away from your home and yard. Call (315) 552-4030 for a free on-site evaluation.
How much does excavation or drainage work cost?
Cost depends on the size of the area, soil conditions, site access, and the scope of the work — a small French drain is priced very differently from full site excavation. Xtreme Companies provides free, no-obligation estimates, so call (315) 552-4030 and we'll give you a quote specific to your property.
Do you handle site prep for concrete patios and driveways?
Yes — site preparation is a core part of our work. Because we also install stamped concrete patios, pool decks, and driveways, we can excavate, prepare the base, and pour the finished surface as one coordinated project instead of juggling multiple contractors.
