Ellis Excavation

Ellis Excavation is a Nashville-based Excavating contractor handling site prep, grading, drainage solutions, utility trenching, and selective demolition across Middle Tennessee’s clay and limestone terrain. Schedule a site walk to review access, soil/rock conditions, and scope, and request an itemized estimate that clearly covers haul-off, compaction, silt fencing/erosion control, and a rock clause common in local digs. Before breaking ground, have them call 811 for utility locates, verify licensing and insurance, and align on permitting, inspections, and a milestone schedule. Whether you’re clearing a lot, cutting a driveway, or fixing yard drainage, ask Ellis Excavation for photos of similar nearby projects and a written timeline to keep your budget and deadlines on track.
