Project scopes NorCal Earthworks handles across Sacramento and nearby counties, from pool removal and structure demo to grading, clearing, hauling, and build-ready prep.
How We Scope Jobs
Demolition and earthwork pricing changes fast once access, haul distance, debris type, utilities, slope, permits, and disposal rules are known. We quote from photos, address context, and a site review instead of forcing a generic price onto a job that may not match it.
The examples below show the kinds of scopes we plan and perform. Each project is scoped around what needs to come out, what needs to stay protected, and what the next trade needs from the site when we leave.

Pool Demolition
Suburban yards and ADU prep sites
Break out the pool shell, remove deck concrete when included, haul debris, place clean backfill, and rough grade the yard for landscaping, patio work, or future planning.
House & Building Demolition
Infill lots, rural parcels, and rebuild sites
Coordinate utility disconnects, remove the structure and slab when scoped, separate debris streams, haul material, and leave the site ready for the next trade.
Land & Brush Clearing
Acreage, fence lines, and build sites
Clear brush, small trees, fence lines, and access paths so owners, surveyors, builders, or fire crews can safely move into the next phase.
Fire Safety Clearing
Foothill and edge-of-SRA properties
Reduce ladder fuels, thin brush, clear access routes, and shape the work plan around CAL FIRE zone priorities and the property's actual terrain.
Grading & Site Preparation
ADUs, shops, garages, and small builds
Shape rough grades, prep pads, correct drainage, and hand off a cleaner site for foundations, gravel, concrete, or landscape crews.
Concrete Removal
Driveways, patios, slabs, and demo cleanup
Sawcut or break concrete, load debris, route material to the right disposal or recycling facility, and clean up the work area for replacement scope.
