Overview

The 34,100 site preparation contractors in the US prepare land for construction activity. Services include excavation work; wrecking and demolition; trenching; sewer and water main installation; construction machinery rental (with operator); and road construction. While private sector projects account for the majority of revenue, site prep contractors also provide services to federal, state, and local governments.

Because site preparation is just part of the construction process, companies often depend on general contractors to secure client business.

Seasonal And Weather-Related Factors

Seasonality and weather conditions affect project timelines and site prep contractors’ ability to perform work.
