Commercial & Residential Excavation in Southern Maryland

One Team, Every Type of Project

Excavation needs look different depending on whether you're building a home, expanding a business, or developing commercial property. Scaggs Excavating handles both commercial and residential projects across Calvert, Charles, and St. Mary's County, and we tailor our approach based on the scale, timeline, and permitting requirements of each job.

Residential Excavation

Residential projects typically involve smaller footprints but still require precision. We handle new home site prep, foundation and basement excavation, septic system installation, driveway and road base work, and final grading and seeding. Southern Maryland's clay-heavy soil and high water table make proper drainage planning especially important on residential lots, and our crews account for that on every job.

Commercial Excavation

Commercial projects bring different demands: larger scale, tighter timelines, and often more complex permitting and utility coordination. We provide land clearing, mass grading, parking lot and road base preparation, stormwater management grading, and demolition and hauling for commercial sites throughout Southern Maryland. We're experienced working alongside general contractors and coordinating around active job sites.

Why Choose Scaggs Excavating

We're MDOT certified and hold a Calvert County Septic License, and we've worked on residential and commercial sites throughout Southern Maryland for years. Whether it's a single-family home site or a commercial development, we bring the same equipment, crews, and attention to grading and drainage to every job.
