Excavation Contractors in Wyoming, OH

Excavation contractors in Wyoming work in a small, walkable city with a lot of history underfoot. Wyoming became a village in 1874 with about 600 residents and a city in 1951. It covers about 2.9 square miles with 8,756 residents and 3,239 housing units in 2020. The Village Historic District, on the National Register since 1986, holds about 300 homes from the 19th and early 20th centuries, many with weatherboard siding and Victorian details.

Kit homes and old foundations

In the early 1900s, Sears kit homes were shipped in by rail and assembled here. Houses from that era and earlier can have shallow stone or brick foundations, original clay laterals and settled grades. Digging near them is done in short sections, by hand close to the walls, with attention to how the soil supports the foundation.

Sidewalk pioneer

Wyoming was the first community in Ohio to systematically lay concrete sidewalks. Many walks and tree lawns are part of the streetscape, and lateral or utility work that crosses them needs proper restoration and any city permits.

Rail and road edges

The 1851 Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Railroad forms part of the border with Lockland, and Springfield Pike follows an old Anthony Wayne-era road. Lots near these corridors can have old fill and buried debris.
