What the Ground Is Like in Portsmouth

Low-lying and flood-prone, with a shallow water table and a lot of fill over original marsh in places. Olde Towne and the surrounding historic districts have narrow lots, brick alleys, and structures close enough together that machine selection matters more than machine size.

Work We Do in Portsmouth

  • Mini excavator work for tight lots, narrow alleys and limited-access backyards
  • Drainage and flood mitigation grading in chronically wet neighborhoods
  • Careful excavation adjacent to historic structures and mature trees
  • Demolition and haul-off on infill and redevelopment parcels
  • Driveway and parking pad installation on small urban lots
