Postwar Homes Near Indian Hill

Excavation contractors in Madeira work in a compact city bordered by Indian Hill, Columbia Township, Cincinnati's Madisonville, Silverton and Sycamore Township. Madeira was laid out in 1871, became a village in 1910 and a city in 1959. It grew from 2,689 residents in 1950 to 6,744 in 1960, and a 1970 annexation of South Kenwood nearly doubled its area. The 2020 census counted 9,487 residents and 3,617 housing units.

Same-era houses

With so many homes from the 1950s and 1960s, lateral, drainage and driveway issues show up in similar ways. We often replace clay laterals, rebuild driveway bases and regrade around foundations.

Storm history

A violent F3 tornado hit Madeira in August 1969, killing four people and causing over $3 million in damage. Storm events can still leave debris, root balls and damaged outbuildings that need removal and regrading.

Teardowns and rebuilds

As older homes are replaced, we handle demolition, basement fill and new foundation digs.

Neighbors on every side

Madeira borders Indian Hill to the east, Cincinnati's Madisonville to the south and west, and Silverton and Sycamore Township. Lots near those borders can share drainage with the next community, so outlets and runoff paths sometimes cross jurisdiction lines. We check which rules apply before designing any drain that leaves the property.

Madeira Questions

Do you prep lots for rebuilds?

Yes. Demolition, basement fill and new foundation excavation.

Why do neighbors all have sewer issues?

Homes built in the same era share pipe materials and age, so they tend to fail around the same time.

Can you rebuild my driveway base?

Yes. We remove the old drive and soft soil and build a compacted stone base.

Can my drain empty into the street?

Only if the city allows it. We confirm the rules for your street first.
