We provide detailed project feasibility reviews, quantity takeoffs, and cost estimates to help our clients, other contractors & developers make informed decisions before construction begins. Our services evaluate site conditions, project scope, quantities, materials, labor, and anticipated costs to identify potential challenges and establish realistic project budgets. We make sure the project is a feasible investment for our clients before breaking ground.

Commercial construction involves many moving parts. Site work must often be coordinated with engineers, surveyors, utility contractors, concrete contractors, building contractors, inspectors, and permitting agencies.

Rockridge can provide project management and site coordination services to help keep construction moving.

Depending on the project, our project management services may include:

• Construction scheduling

• Subcontractor coordination

• Plan and specification coordination

• Permit coordination

• Inspection scheduling

• Site logistics

• Material coordination

• Utility coordination

• Construction sequencing

• Communication with project stakeholders

Our goal is to identify potential site issues early, maintain clear communication, and keep the project progressing toward completion at a reasonable rate, making sure it completed by an agreed upon deadline.

We prepare commercial properties for construction by removing trees, brush, vegetation, stumps, debris, and other site obstacles. Clearing operations can be coordinated with grading, erosion control, access, drainage, and material management requirements.

Our site preparation services can include:

• Commercial land clearing

• Tree and brush removal

• Stump removal

• Debris removal

• Topsoil stripping and stockpiling

• Existing surface removal

• Rough site grading

• Construction access

• Preparation for building and infrastructure construction

Commercial redevelopment often begins with removing existing structures, pavement, concrete, utilities, or other site improvements.

Rockridge provides excavation and demolition support for commercial projects, including:

• Building demolition

• Concrete removal

• Asphalt removal

• Foundation removal

• Pavement removal

• Existing utility removal

• Debris loading and hauling

• Site cleanup and preparation for new construction

Our goal is to leave the property clean of debris & prepared for the next phase of construction.

Proper earthwork is one of the most important parts of commercial site development. Our excavation team performs cut-and-fill operations to establish required grades and elevations for buildings, parking areas, roads, utilities, and drainage systems.

Our earthwork capabilities include:

• Mass excavation

• Cut and fill

• Building pad preparation

• Structural excavation

• Embankment construction

• Soil removal and placement

• Import and export coordination

• Rough and finish grading

• Subgrade preparation

• Structural compaction and site stabilization

We work from project plans, specifications, elevations, and survey information to establish the grades required for the next phases of construction.

A properly prepared building site is critical to the success of a commercial project.

Rockridge performs excavation and site preparation for:

• Commercial buildings

• Shops and warehouses

• Retail buildings

• Industrial facilities

• Office buildings

• Agricultural and commercial structures

• Foundations and slabs

• Footings

• Building pads

We coordinate excavation and grading with project elevations, foundation plans, utilities, drainage, and site access requirements to ensure quality work that will stand the test of time so projects can be completed with confidence.

Commercial properties require durable access roads, parking areas, and properly constructed subgrades and drainage pathways.

Our road and parking lot services include:

• Site access roads

• Commercial parking lots

• Private roads

• Aggregate base preparation

• Subgrade preparation

• Grading and drainage

• Road widening

• Road improvements

• Driveway approaches

• Aggregate placement

• Prep for curb and gutter

Work is performed in accordance with project plans, specifications, applicable county requirements, and Washington State Department of Transportation standards. Quality is always our top priority on all of our projects.

Underground infrastructure is a major component of commercial site development. Rockridge provides excavation and installation support for a wide range of underground utility systems.

Our capabilities include excavation for:

• Water lines

• Fire protection systems

• Sewer lines

• Storm drainage

• Dry utilities

• Utility crossings

• Utility trenches

• Service connections

• Underground infrastructure

We coordinate utility excavation with project plans, elevations, existing site conditions, and other trades to help minimize conflicts and construction delays.

Effective stormwater management is essential to commercial development in Southwest Washington.

Rockridge performs the excavation and construction work necessary for stormwater and drainage systems, including:

• Storm drainage systems

• Catch basins

• Drainage swales

• Detention and retention facilities

• Underground stormwater systems

• Drainage trenches

• Outfalls

• Infiltration-related excavation

• Site grading for positive drainage

• Erosion and sediment control measures

Stormwater systems are constructed according to applicable project plans, engineering requirements, and regulatory requirements.

Changes in elevation can create challenges on commercial properties. Retaining walls can provide grade separation while helping maximize usable site area.

Rockridge provides excavation and site preparation for retaining wall systems, including:

• Wall excavation

• Aggregate and drainage preparation

• Structural backfill

• Rockeries

• Soldier pile walls

• Eco/ ultra block retaining walls

• MSE walls

Structural wall design and engineering are provided by the appropriate licensed professionals when required. We build walls to industry standards & plan specifications with compaction, drainage and stability in mind.

Where commercial projects utilize on-site wastewater systems, proper excavation and site preparation are critical.

Our services can include:

• Septic system installation

  • Gravity

  • Pressurized distribution

  • Mounds & Others

• Proprietary systems installations.

  • Nu water

  • Oscar

  • Others

• Drain field installation

• Tank installation

• Sewer main installation

• Manholes

All septic systems are constructed according to approved designs and applicable regulatory requirements.
