Animas Excavating Launches Commercial Excavation and Site Work Page for Durango and the Four Corners

DURANGO, Colo. - Rezul -- Animas Excavating, a licensed and insured General Excavation Contractor based in Durango, has launched a new page dedicated to commercial excavation and site work in Durango. The page is built for general contractors, developers, architects, and civil engineers evaluating excavation subs for active commercial projects, and it outlines the full ground-level and underground scope the company self-performs.

The page also brings the company's commercial credentials together in one place. Animas Excavating has more than eight years of operating history, is a licensed OWTS installer on the La Plata County roster, is fully insured, and is an FMCSA-registered carrier that manages its own hauling.

A central section of the page explains 3D smart grade, the GPS satellite technology the company uses for commercial grading. Traditional grading relies on grade stakes and string line, which means a surveyor keeps returning to reset stakes that get knocked down by equipment. Animas Excavating's crew grades with the same GPS-guided equipment surveyors use, removing a significant surveying line item on a typical commercial job.

The page lays out the process from first call to scheduled start:

• First contact by phone, email, or text, with the first conversation handled by founder Mike Zarlingo
• A site visit to walk the scope and ground conditions before any pricing
• A bid structured as a fixed-cost number or a time-and-materials arrangement
• Contract approval and a schedule sequenced around the project timeline
• An experienced crew running the work on site day to day
• Weekly progress invoicing tied to completed work

Visitors will also find a section on commercial building foundations, where the company's role is the excavation and site preparation that comes before concrete is poured. Other sections cover hard-rock excavation in Southwest Colorado terrain, storm drain and detention systems, commercial retaining walls, and large and small scale demolition.
