Are you planning to build a house, renovate a property, install a sewer connection, septic tank, wastewater treatment plant, rainwater retention tank or swimming pool?

Professional excavation and earthworks are an essential part of almost every construction project. The quality of the initial ground preparation can significantly affect the speed, safety and final result of the entire project.

RUMANA – Earthworks provides excavation and ground preparation services using mini excavators, backhoe loaders, dumpers and transport equipment.

We provide services across Slovakia and the Czech Republic, including major cities and surrounding areas such as Žilina, Trenčín, Martin, Čadca, Považská Bystrica, Bratislava, Trnava, Nitra, Prague, Brno, Ostrava, Olomouc, Zlín, Pardubice and Hradec Králové.

Depending on the size and requirements of the project, we can provide individual excavation services or coordinate several stages of the work as one complete solution.

Professional excavation services in Slovakia and the Czech Republic

Every construction site is different.

A foundation excavation for a new family house requires different equipment and procedures than a narrow trench for a sewer connection, drainage system or electrical cable.

Before starting excavation work, several factors should be considered:

• size and depth of the excavation,
• type of soil,
• access to the property,
• width of the entrance,
• slope of the terrain,
• amount of excavated soil,
• possibility of storing soil on site,
• need for soil removal,
• delivery of construction materials,
• location of existing utilities,
• project requirements.

For this reason, it is often more efficient to work with one contractor who can coordinate the excavation, loading, transportation, material delivery, backfilling and final landscaping.

Mini excavators for narrow and difficult-to-access sites

A large construction machine is not always the best solution.

Many residential properties, gardens, cottages and urban construction sites have limited access. The entrance may be narrow, the property may already be landscaped, or there may simply not be enough space for a large machine.

A compact mini excavator can be an excellent solution for:

• sewer connections,
• water connections,
• electrical connections,
• drainage trenches,
• fence foundations,
• swimming pools,
• septic tanks,
• wastewater treatment plants,
• rainwater retention tanks,
• garden construction,
• landscaping,
• foundation preparation.

Mini excavators are particularly useful in residential areas of Prague, Brno, Bratislava, Žilina, Trenčín, Martin, Ostrava, Olomouc and Zlín, where access can be significantly more complicated than on a large construction site.

The type of soil, terrain and distance for transporting excavated material should always be considered when planning the work.

Foundation excavation for houses

Foundation excavation is one of the most important stages of new house construction.

Before excavation begins, it is necessary to understand the building plans, foundation dimensions, finished floor levels and conditions of the individual site.

The same principle applies whether the project is located in Prague, Brno, Ostrava, Bratislava, Žilina, Trenčín, Nitra or another city.

A flat suburban plot may require a completely different approach than a steep property in the Zlín region, Kysuce, Beskydy or northern Slovakia.

Sewer, water, electricity and utility trenches

New construction often requires several utility connections.

These may include:

• sewer,
• water,
• electricity,
• gas,
• rainwater drainage,
• telecommunications,
• optical cables.

Coordinating the trenches can reduce the number of interventions into the property.

Before excavation begins, it is therefore important to know the planned routes and locations of existing underground utilities.

Septic tanks, wastewater treatment plants and retention tanks

Excavation is an important part of installing underground tanks.

A construction pit must be prepared according to the dimensions and technical requirements of the specific tank.

The work may include:

• excavation,
• bottom preparation,
• sub-base,
• tank installation,
• pipe connections,
• gravel or sand backfill,
• soil backfill,
• compaction,
• removal of excess soil.

RUMANA can coordinate excavation-related work for projects in both Slovakia and the Czech Republic.

Drainage and rainwater management

Water on a property can cause serious problems if it is not properly managed.

Incorrectly controlled rainwater or groundwater can affect foundations, basements, retaining walls, gardens and surrounding terrain.

Depending on site conditions, a drainage system may include:

• trench excavation,
• preparation of the base,
• drainage pipe installation,
• geotextile,
• drainage aggregate,
• backfilling,
• terrain restoration.

Drainage can be particularly important on sloping properties in regions such as Zlín, Vsetín, Beskydy, Žilina, Kysuce, Považie and northern Slovakia.

Swimming pool excavation and garden projects

A mini excavator is also a practical machine for swimming pool construction and garden projects.

The work may include:

• pool excavation,
• soil removal,
• bottom preparation,
• gravel delivery,
• backfilling,
• landscaping,
• preparation for terraces,
• preparation for garden structures.

The main advantage is that a compact machine can often work in areas where larger equipment cannot access the property.

Soil removal and material delivery

Excavation is only one part of the project.

Once the ground has been excavated, the soil often needs to be transported away. At the same time, the project may require delivery of:

• gravel,
• sand,
• aggregate,
• construction materials,
• drainage material,
• backfill material.

For this reason, it can be practical to coordinate:

excavation + loading + soil removal + material delivery + backfilling + compaction

as one complete process.

Landscaping and terrain grading

After construction work, the property may be uneven, compacted or damaged by machinery.

Final earthworks may include:

• spreading soil,
• grading,
• creating slopes,
• preparing lawns,
• preparing paving bases,
• parking areas,
• access roads,
• backfilling,
• compaction.

These services can be provided for small residential gardens as well as larger construction sites.

How much do excavation works cost?

The price of excavation work depends on the specific project.

Important factors include:

• machine type,
• number of working hours,
• soil type,
• excavation depth,
• site accessibility,
• transportation distance,
• volume of excavated soil,
• soil disposal,
• material delivery,
• required finishing work.

For this reason, the price of a mini excavator should not be considered separately from the entire project.

A cheaper hourly rate may not necessarily mean a lower total project cost if the machine is too small, transportation is inefficient or additional work is required.

The best way to estimate the project is to provide the location, approximate dimensions, photographs and information about site access.

Why choose the right construction machinery?

Choosing the correct machine can significantly influence the efficiency of excavation work.

A compact mini excavator is often ideal for:

• gardens,
• narrow entrances,
• residential properties,
• utility trenches,
• drainage,
• swimming pools,
• smaller foundations.

Larger machinery may be more efficient for:

• large construction sites,
• extensive foundation excavation,
• large quantities of soil,
• road preparation,
• major terrain modifications.

RUMANA has access to different types of construction equipment, allowing the machinery to be selected according to the specific requirements of the project.

Excavation services for houses, cottages and businesses

Earthworks are not limited to large construction projects.

Smaller projects can include:

• fence foundations,
• garden houses,
• terraces,
• swimming pools,
• drainage,
• sewer connections,
• water connections,
• parking spaces,
• garden leveling.

At the same time, larger residential, commercial and construction projects can require multiple machines and transport vehicles.
