Excavating Contractor

Dirt work done right, the first time.

From a single trench to a full building pad, C & L handles the excavating side of your project across Bastrop and eight surrounding counties. Owner-run, fully insured, and 25+ years on Central Texas soil.

What we do

Full-service excavating for
homeowners, builders, and ranches

We show up with the right machine for the job — not whatever happened to be on the trailer. Every project gets a walk-through, a straight estimate, and a crew that respects your property.

Site Preparation

Building a home, shop, or barn? We clear, level, and prep your pad so the slab crew rolls in on schedule.

  • Rough & finish grading
  • Pad building
  • Cut & fill
  • Compaction

Trenching & Utility Lines

Clean, straight trenches for water, electric, gas, and drainage — dug to spec and backfilled right.

  • Water & sewer lines
  • Electrical conduit
  • French drains
  • Culverts

Land Clearing

Brush, stumps, and overgrowth removed so you can build, farm, or fence. Rural acreage is our specialty.

  • Brush & tree removal
  • Stump grinding
  • Fence line clearing
  • Debris haul-off

Driveways & Roads

Long rural driveways graded and rocked to hold up to Texas weather and heavy trucks.

  • New driveways
  • Regrading & repair
  • Base rock & caliche
  • Culvert install

Ponds & Tanks

Stock tanks, retention ponds, and drainage basins dug and shaped for the way water actually moves on your land.

  • New pond digging
  • Existing pond cleanout
  • Dam & spillway work
  • Drainage

Demolition & Haul-Off

Old sheds, slabs, foundations, or damaged structures removed and hauled off — site left clean.

  • Structure demo
  • Concrete removal
  • Debris haul-off
  • Rough cleanup

Owned equipment

We own our iron. That means faster starts and honest pricing.

Renting equipment adds days to a schedule and cost to a bid. Because we run our own excavators, skid steers, and dump trucks, we can quote fast, start sooner, and keep your project moving even when weather shifts the calendar.

Excavators (mini to full-size)
Skid steers & track loaders
Backhoes
Dump trucks
Trenchers
Compactors

How it works

A simple, three-step process

01
Walk the site
We meet you on the property, look at access, soil, and slope, and talk through what you're trying to accomplish.
02
Straight estimate
You get a clear, written estimate — no surprise add-ons and no pressure to sign on the spot.
03
Get it done
Our crew shows up when we said we would, does the work right, and leaves your site clean.

How it works

One crew for excavating AND septic saves you time and money.

Most of our new-build customers hire us for both. Coordinating the pad, trenches, and septic system under one roof means no missed hand-offs, no finger-pointing, and one number to call when questions come up.
