Excavation & Site Work services in Schaumburg
Schaumburg was farmland until the 1950s, and the village grew fast from the 1960s through the 1990s around Woodfield Mall and a web of detention ponds and wetlands. The soil is dense glacial till, clay mixed with sand and stones, that drains slowly and gets sticky after rain. Subdivision lots were graded to drain into ponds and storm sewers, and after decades of settling, many yards now hold water near the house or along rear lot lines. Basements and crawl spaces are common. Typical Schaumburg jobs are rear-yard drainage swales, drain tile and downspout lines, patio and driveway base, garage and addition footings, and sewer and water line repairs, with erosion control to protect the ponds.
