A request that says excavation can cover several different jobs. Describing the intended result helps establish the right scope and avoids assuming that every related trade is included.

Foundations and additions

Provide the current footprint, plans and access information. Confirm whether the request includes only digging or also material export, backfill and a return visit. Work affecting an existing footing can need separate structural direction.

Utility routes and drainage

Separate excavation from pipe or conduit installation, connections, approvals and restoration. Identify known public and private services and any required outlet or water-handling assessment.

Grading and broader site work

State the desired elevations, final use, material assumptions and next stage. Clearing, imported fill, testing, haul-off and landscape finish can be distinct responsibilities.

Common questions

What if I do not know the service name?

Explain the improvement and choose Other / Not Sure on the request form. Available plans and site information are more useful than guessing terminology.

Does a bid inquiry guarantee service availability?

No. Service fit, the actual contractor, timing and scope still need confirmation.
