Our Capabilities

Excavating & Foundation

From footings and foundations to full site prep, we handle excavation for homes, additions, ADUs, garages and commercial builds across Guelph and the surrounding area. Every dig starts with a plan, so the ground is ready for what comes next.

Grading & Drainage

Poor grading causes more property damage than almost anything else. We set proper slope & flow to manage stormwater, protect foundations and keep water moving away from your home or business.

Trenching & Utilities

Sewer, water, hydro & drainage trenching, done cleanly, safely and to code. We work alongside homeowners, developers and other trades to get utilities in the ground without unnecessary disruption to the site.

Septic System Install & Repair

We’re licensed septic system installers, bringing that certification to new installs and repairs whether you're building new or replacing an aging system, we handle the excavation & installation.

Asphalt & Concrete

Driveways, pads, sidewalks and more, built to hold up through Ontario winters. TerraCore prepares the base right so the finished surface lasts.

Not sure what you need? That's alright.

Demolition & Removal

Concrete & asphalt removal, cleared and hauled away. We handle demolition safely and leave the site ready for the next phase of work.

Ditch Cleaning

Roadside and property ditches cleared and restored to proper flow, helping prevent erosion and standing water on rural and semi-rural properties across Wellington County.

Drain Camera & Repair

Before any digging starts, we use drain camera inspection to find the actual problem. That means less guesswork, less unnecessary excavation and a faster fix.
