Pre-Construction

Decades of experience form a knowledge base from which we deliver proven, trusted pre-construction consulting services across the entire life-cycle of a project.

We have a long history working with GCs, owners, developers and others eager to understand and gauge the suitability of a site for development. Pre-qualification, site inspection, assessments of conceptual and site development drawings, cost feedback, value engineering, and construction document evaluations – we provide pre-construction assistance all the way to the bidding process.

“They’re good people to work with. They’re straight shooters and care about their work and their customer relationships. Anderson worked one of my first projects about 15 years ago and they were a great partner then and they’re a great partner now.” – Josh Foreso, SVP, HITT Contracting

Our commitment to transparency, integrity, and safety mean we don’t cut corners or hide from uncomfortable truths. Our goal is to ensure our customers enter every project with their eyes open and a rock-solid understanding of how to get the job done fast, safe, and on-budget.

Site Preparation

The Anderson Company excels at site preparation for the simple reasons that it improves the efficiency, safety, and overall quality of the job. The bottom line: we get you to concrete faster than the competition.

From demolition of existing site structures, clearing, grading, and implementation of erosion control systems, to excavating, hauling and removing hazardous soils, we specialize in preparing building pads quickly, professionally and safely.

“There are a lot of great companies out there. But in my opinion nobody has the consistent depth of talent or quality of equipment that Anderson does.” – Ronnie Strompf, VP, Clark Construction

We’re experts at working with virtually any site type or condition, and implementing site preparation plans and processes that will meet the unique needs of the owner and/or builder.

Excavation

The Anderson Company is truly unique in our full complement of excavation and site work services. This hybrid approach not only means we can conduct excavations involving tremendous amounts of material, but we do so at extremely deep elevations that intimidate our competition.

We pride ourselves on our ability to conduct a tremendous amount of raw excavation from deep underground in conditions that often intimidate our competition. Heavy traffic with serious safety implications? No problem. Tight timelines involving enormous amounts of material removal? We do it all the time. Surprised by contaminated soils? We’ll take care of it.

“Our success is directly dependent on the strong performance of capable subcontractors. Since 1997, The Anderson Company has repeatedly been timely with executing their work for us on more than a half dozen large projects. In short, they get the job done and fast.”
– David Miller, SVP, Boston Properties

From supposedly impossible time tables to similarly impossible soil volumes, The Anderson Company has repeatedly established industry standards for moving enormous amounts of excavated material quickly, safely, and often ahead of schedule.

Material Supplies & Disposal

Precisely because we dig and haul an enormous amount of soil, The Anderson Company is a go-to resource for DC metro area companies interested in materials supply and disposal services.

Regardless of whether our partner is looking for delivery – or removal – of dirt, crushed rock, or crushed stone, we’ve got what they need, when they need it, along with the capacity to fulfill those orders.

Trucking & Equipment Rental

The Anderson Company is home to the DC metro area’s most modern and well-maintained fleet, which is why our trucking and equipment rental services are always in high demand.

From day 1, the internal commitment has been to keep our equipment clean, professionally serviced (in the field or at the home office), and regularly replaced far more frequently than the industry standard.

We do this for one reason: a new and well-maintained fleet is a productive fleet. Meaning, we don’t struggle with interruptions in work schedules due to equipment problems. This keeps everyone – from our customers to our employees – happy, productive, and motivated.

The downside (if there is one)? Our equipment is in high-demand, internally and externally. Click here for a complete listing of our available equipment and rates.

Environmental Remediation

Environmental remediation goes hand-in-hand with our business. Impacted soils can’t always be anticipated, but they can always be managed so as not to interfere with a project’s schedule.

The Anderson Company has the equipment, knowhow, and internal talent to recognize and manage impacted soils whenever and wherever they arise. TPH soils, heavy metals, PCBs, and volatiles are quickly and safely managed, and we are careful to assign professionals with necessary certifications to ensure proper excavation and disposal of these materials. We also carry outstanding pollution liability insurance.
