Room to Dig in the North

Excavation contractors in Colerain Township work across about 43 square miles of northern Hamilton County. The township is made up of hills separating the Mill Creek and Great Miami River basins, sloping down to the Great Miami floodplain, and the ground generally rises toward the north. It had about 59,000 residents and 24,621 housing units in 2020, at an elevation of about 850 feet. In the 1950s it grew 283 percent, from 7,473 to 28,632.

Woods and open land

About half of the township was still woodland as of 1990. Larger parcels mean land clearing, ponds, pole barn pads, long drives and new home sites. We reuse topsoil and spoil on site wherever we can.

Valley floor

Near the Great Miami, the floodplain brings sandier soils and floodplain rules. Up on the hills, clay subsoils and slopes call for careful drainage.

Midcentury neighborhoods

The 1950s boom left thousands of homes now 60 to 70 years old, with matching lateral, driveway and drainage needs.

Main roads

Colerain Avenue (U.S. 27) is the main north-south artery, and I-74 and I-275 cross the township. We plan truck routes and timing around them.

Larger parcels, longer trenches

On acreage, utility runs to barns, shops and second structures can be hundreds of feet long, and septic systems are common where sewer service does not reach. We dig to the approved septic design and to the depth each utility requires, bed the lines properly, and restore the surface. Every trench gets an Ohio 811 locate first.
