On this page you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions regarding our services, such as earthworks, foundation excavation, terrain adjustments, and the use of mini excavators and excavators. Our company focuses on delivering high-quality, fast, and professional execution of all types of earthworks. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to contact us – we will be happy to provide more information.
1. What earthworks do you provide?
Rumana provides a wide range of earthworks, such as excavation of foundations for family houses and commercial buildings, terrain leveling and adjustments, and excavation for utility networks, including sewer and water connections. We use mini excavators and excavators, which allow us to carry out all work quickly, efficiently, and with high precision.
2. What machinery do you use for earthworks?
Our company uses modern mini excavators, excavators, and dumpers, which allow us to carry out earthworks in various conditions. Mini excavators are ideal for smaller excavations and work in confined spaces, while larger excavators are used for more extensive projects such as terrain adjustments or utility trenching. Dumpers are suitable for transporting soil and materials in hard-to-access terrain.
3. Which areas do you cover for earthworks services?
Rumana provides earthworks services in several regions, including the Bratislava, Žilina, Trenčín, and Trnava regions, as well as in cities such as Žilina, Bytča, Ružomberok, Nitra, Banská Bystrica, and others, including areas around Brno. We are flexible and adapt to the needs of our customers in all these locations.
4. How long does it take to complete earthworks on one project?
The duration depends on the scope of the project. Smaller foundation excavations can be completed within a few days, while more extensive works such as terrain adjustments or excavation for utility networks may take several weeks. It also depends on whether it is a connection for a family house or for an entire village. After an on-site inspection, we will provide you with an exact time frame for completion.
5. What are the prices for earthworks?
The price of earthworks depends on the type and scope of the work performed, as well as the location of the project. Rumana provides individual price quotations based on a site inspection. We always strive to ensure transparent and fair pricing that takes all implementation factors into account. Our website also includes a price list for all machinery.
6. Can you also help us with foundation footings?
Yes, Rumana also provides construction of foundation footings for various types of structures such as family houses, cottages, mobile homes, and commercial buildings. We handle all works related to ground preparation, excavation, and the construction of stable foundations. Turnkey foundations — that's Rumana.
7. What are the advantages of cooperating with Rumana?
Cooperation with Rumana brings many advantages, including high-quality workmanship, modern machinery (excavators, mini excavators, dumpers), flexibility, fast project execution, and adherence to deadlines. Our company also provides professional consulting and an individual approach to each project.
8. When is the best time to carry out earthworks?
The best conditions for earthworks are during dry months, typically in spring or autumn. However, if weather and site conditions are favorable, we are able to carry out earthworks even in winter or summer. Our company is flexible and adapts to your needs. On our website, we also have videos showing that even mud and water are not a problem for us.
9. What do landscaping (site preparation) works include?
Terrace and landscaping works include a wide range of activities that prepare the land for construction or final use. They typically involve terrain leveling, excavation and removal of excess soil, backfilling, compaction of subsoil, and shaping of the land according to project requirements.
They may also include preparation for foundations, driveways, parking areas, garden adjustments, drainage solutions, and soil improvement. The goal is to create a stable, functional, and properly shaped surface ready for further construction or landscaping works.
10. How do you ensure safety during earthworks?
Safety during earthworks is ensured through strict adherence to safety regulations, proper planning of each project, and the use of modern and well-maintained machinery. Our operators are experienced and trained to work safely in various terrain and site conditions.
We also take measures such as securing excavation sites, using protective barriers where necessary, checking underground utilities before digging, and continuously monitoring site conditions. The goal is to minimize risks for both workers and the surrounding environment while ensuring smooth and efficient execution of the works.
