Site Work & Excavation Contractor Serving Greater Portland, Maine

A house site package from JM Excavating covers the full scope of site preparation for a new home build: land clearing and grubbing, rough grading, foundation excavation, utility trenching (water, sewer, drainage), and final site grading. We handle everything from raw land to a build-ready lot so your builder can move straight to framing without coordinating multiple subcontractors.

We work with both. Home builders are a core part of our business — we specialize in house site packages designed to fit a builder's schedule and handoff requirements. We also work directly with homeowners on driveways, utility installations, lot clearing, and site prep for new structures. Whether you're a GC managing a development or a homeowner with a single project, we're set up to help.

We handle grading, earthwork, utility trenching, and site preparation for commercial builds, multi-unit developments, and infrastructure projects across Greater Portland. Commercial work demands tight coordination and reliable equipment — we work within your project schedule and communicate directly with your GC or project manager throughout.

We serve eight towns across Cumberland County within roughly a 20-mile radius of Portland: Falmouth, Cumberland, Windham, Gorham, Scarborough, Freeport, Brunswick, and Yarmouth. If your project is in or near one of these communities, call us and we'll confirm coverage for your specific location.
