Residential
We support high-end residential builds and property improvements with clean site preparation, excavation, grading support, storm drainage, and structural coordination where needed. From tight-access driveways to hillside sites, our crews keep the job moving with safe staging, dependable scheduling, and clear communication.
If your project includes retaining walls, pier drilling, shoring, or earthquake-related upgrades, we’ll help you build on a solid foundation—done right the first time.
Commercial
Farallon Company Engineering provides excavation, shoring, and infrastructure support for commercial construction, tenant improvements, and site upgrades. We coordinate field details proactively to keep inspections, deliveries, and sequencing on track.
Whether you need trenching for utilities, storm drainage, or site stabilization, our team delivers efficient execution without sacrificing safety or quality.
Public Works
We support municipal and public infrastructure projects with disciplined field coordination, site work, drainage, and utility construction. Our crews understand the importance of safety, access, and clean traffic/sidewalk management where required.
From small improvements to multi-step scopes, we focus on inspection-ready workmanship and reliable scheduling so the job closes out cleanly.
Underground Utilities
Trenching, installs, repairs, and tie-ins—handled with careful line-of-sight planning, safe excavation practices, and a clean finish. We support underground infrastructure needs including utility pathways, site drainage components, and related civil work.
If your job requires tight sequencing with other trades or inspectors, we keep communication clear so the utility scope stays inspection-ready and on schedule.
Emergency Work
When conditions change fast—storm damage, washouts, access issues, or urgent site hazards—we provide rapid-response support to stabilize the situation and restore safe progress. Our team prioritizes safety, clear decision-making, and clean site control.
If your property needs urgent shoring, storm drainage correction, or hillside slide repair measures, we’ll help you move from emergency response to a stable long-term solution.
Soils Stabilization & Hydro-Seeding
Protect slopes and improve long-term site performance with erosion control, stabilization, and hydro-seeding solutions. We help reduce runoff impacts, strengthen exposed areas, and support compliant, durable finishes on challenging terrain.
Ideal for hillside properties and large sites where drainage control and stable ground conditions are essential for project success.
Pier Drilling
Pier drilling supports strong foundations on difficult sites—especially where hillside conditions, soils, or access require deeper, engineered support. We coordinate drilling scope with the broader site plan to keep the workflow efficient and inspection-ready.
If you’re building new or reinforcing an existing foundation, we’ll help you get the right start below grade.
Retaining Walls
Retaining walls are critical for hillside stability, grade transitions, and long-term drainage performance. We support wall-related excavation, site prep, and coordination so the finished structure is clean, functional, and built to last.
From small property improvements to large hillside applications, we help create stable, usable outdoor space with dependable execution.
Storm Drainage
Move water where it belongs with storm drainage solutions that protect structures, slopes, and pavement. We support drainage improvements and corrections that reduce pooling, erosion, and runoff impact.
For new construction or problem drainage sites, we help deliver clean installs that perform through the season.
Shoring
Shoring keeps excavation and structural work safe—especially on tight lots, hillside sites, and locations with sensitive boundaries. We provide excavation support planning and clean field coordination to maintain stability and protect adjacent areas.
If your scope includes deep excavation, retaining systems, or structural reinforcement, shoring helps keep the job moving safely and efficiently.
Excavation
From site cuts and trenching to foundation prep and spoils handling, our excavation work supports projects of all sizes with a clean, controlled approach. We help set the stage for utilities, drainage, walls, and structural construction with dependable field execution.
Serving projects throughout our Northern California coverage area, we keep safety, scheduling, and jobsite cleanliness front and center.
