Excavation Safety

SCAGGS Site Development understands the need for experience, knowledge and training on your Maryland jobsite.  Excavation is the most dangerous of all construction operations. More workers are killed or seriously injured in and around excavations than in other phases of construction work, and that’s why the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires a competent person to oversee all excavation and trenching jobsites. The competent person must have specific training in, and be knowledgeable about, soil analysis, the use of protective systems, and the requirements of OSHA Subpart P.

Before beginning any large construction project call Scaggs Development for a consultation concerning the scope of the project and the estimated costs.  Over the years Scaggs Excavating has proved themselves to be talented and trained in the excavating industry.

Whether your digging a trench, installing a geothermal unit or creating a waterscape Scaggs Site Development should be one of the first calls you make.
