Hometown Excavation Contractor for Meigs County, Ohio
Meigs County is not a service area we drive into; it is home. Little's Landscape & Excavation is based in Pomeroy, the county seat, so most jobs in the county are a short drive from where our equipment parks at night. That closeness means quicker site visits, easier scheduling and a crew that already knows how this ground behaves after a hard rain.
The county covers about 430 square miles, with the Ohio River forming its eastern and southern edge. Most of the land drains to the river through two watersheds, Leading Creek and the Shade River. In between are steep wooded hills, narrow creek bottoms and old strip-mined ground where high walls and spoil piles still shape the land, and each of those settings digs and drains differently.
We are licensed and insured, call Ohio 811 (OUPS) before every dig and give free, detailed estimates on every job. With more than three years working Meigs County, we handle excavation, concrete, foundation repair and sealing, ponds, demolition, septic and grading, so one local crew can carry a project from rough ground to a finished site.

Excavation Services in Meigs, Ohio
Long gravel lanes run off nearly every township road in Meigs County, and many of them cross a wet hollow or roadside ditch on the way to the house. We set culvert pipe sized for real storm runoff, bed it in stone and shape the ditches so a heavy spring rain does not carry the drive down into the creek.
We also clear brush and timber for new homesites, grade pads for barns and garages, trench for water and electric lines and break out sandstone where a cut hits ledge. On reclaimed mine ground, we check how the old fill has settled before trusting it under a building pad or a driveway.
Concrete Contractor in Meigs, Ohio
A slab is only as good as what sits underneath it. Because we do our own excavation, every Meigs County pour starts with a compacted, well-drained stone base built to handle hillside runoff and the freeze-thaw swings that crack poorly prepared concrete within a couple of winters.
Our crew pours driveways and aprons, garage and pole barn pads, sidewalks, patios and footers for decks and outbuildings. Each job gets the thickness, reinforcement and slope its use calls for, so a pad for a tractor is built heavier than a back porch patio.
Foundation Repair & Sealing in Meigs, Ohio
We repair and seal existing foundations; we do not build new ones. Across Meigs County, plenty of older homes sit on block or stone walls cut into a hillside, where clay soil holds water against the basement and slowly pushes the wall inward over the years.
The fix starts by excavating along the outside of the problem wall. We repair cracks and bowing, apply a waterproof seal and lay drain tile at the footer to carry water off. Then we backfill with clean stone and regrade the yard so runoff heads downhill, away from the house.
Pond Construction & Repair in Meigs, Ohio
Meigs County has no shortage of wet hollows and pasture low spots that could hold a pond. A pond that stays full through August needs clay that seals, a watershed sized to the basin and a compacted dam with a spillway that can handle a cloudburst, and we check all three before we dig.
We build ponds for livestock, fishing, wildlife and fire protection, with bank slopes that resist slumping and an easy path down to the water. Existing ponds that leak, have a washed-out spillway or have filled with silt can be dug out, re-sealed and rebuilt to hold water again.
Demolition Services in Meigs, Ohio
Collapsed barns, fire-damaged houses, old mobile homes and river-town buildings past repair turn up all over Meigs County. We take them down in a controlled order once utilities are disconnected, keeping the work safe for neighbors, livestock and traffic on the road out front.
Debris is loaded and hauled away, old basements and cellar holes are filled with clean material and compacted, and the lot is graded to drain. Many owners have us roll straight into site prep, so the ground is ready for a new garage, pad or yard without another contractor.
Septic System Installation & Repair in Meigs, Ohio
Outside the river villages, most Meigs County homes rely on their own septic systems, and the county's clay and shallow rock make placement and depth important. We work from the approved design and permit, setting tanks and lines at the grade the plan calls for.
We install complete systems for new homesites, replace cracked or failing tanks and repair leach fields that show up as soggy ground or slow drains. Chambers are set level in fresh trenches, then backfilled and graded so surface water sheds away from the field instead of soaking it.
Landscape Design & Grading in Meigs, Ohio
Hillside yards are standard in Meigs County, and they bring washouts, standing water in low corners and banks too steep to mow. We regrade lawns, cut swales and add drain lines so stormwater follows a planned path, saving topsoil up front and spreading it back over the finished grade.
Where a slope needs holding, we build curved or straight block retaining walls on a compacted base with drainage stone behind them, creating level room for patios, gardens or play areas. Erosion control on cut banks and ditches keeps that new ground from sliding after the next heavy storm.
