Serving the Cowichan Valley
Request an excavation quote
Duncan Excavating takes quote requests through the form on this page, for work across the Cowichan Valley from Cowichan Bay to Lake Cowichan. A request naming the property, the work involved and any date being worked toward gets a closer first answer, and utility locates need 3 working days before a machine starts.
What happens after a request
- 1
A reply to arrange a look — Enough back and forth to establish what is involved and when someone can walk the site.
- 2
The site visit — Access, slope, spoil volume, ground type and where material can go — the things that decide the price and cannot be established remotely.
- 3
A written quote — Machine time, trucking and disposal listed separately, with any permit or notice the work will need named alongside it.
What to include
The property address or at least the road and community, since ground conditions vary sharply across the Cowichan Valley. What needs to happen — clearing, footings, drainage, a driveway, or something that does not fit a category. Any date the work has to meet, including a building permit inspection or a concrete booking. And anything already known about the site: an existing drainage problem, a steep approach, a narrow gate, or rock that has turned up before.

The more detail about the property and the work, the closer the first number will be. A written quote follows a site visit.
