Foundation Systems for Mountain Builds

Every foundation type we install is engineered for your site conditions and built to meet local county code requirements and inspection standards.

Basement Foundations

Full basement excavation with poured concrete wall systems for homes and structures that need below-grade living or storage space.

Crawl Space Foundations

Shallow foundation systems well suited for sloped lots or properties with limited equipment access.

Slab-on-Grade Foundations

Cost-effective concrete slab installations for garages, shops, barns, and homes on relatively flat ground.

Pier and Beam Footings

Elevated foundation systems for steep terrain, poor soil conditions, or structures that need to sit above grade.

Poured Concrete Walls

Professionally formed and poured structural walls for basements, retaining applications, and below-grade enclosures.

Foundation Excavation and Backfill

Complete dig-out, spoil management, and backfilling coordinated with the concrete schedule so nothing sits open longer than it needs to.

What We Deliver

Mountainside Land Services prepping space for retaining wall.

Complete foundation systems built for Colorado's mountain soils, slopes, frost depths, and drainage conditions.

One Team from Dirt to Concrete

Getting a foundation right on a mountain lot means getting the excavation, the drainage, and the concrete work all pulling in the same direction. We handle the full process in-house and with trusted specialty partners, so you’re working with one team, one schedule, and one point of contact from the first dig to the final pour.

We plan every foundation around the specific conditions on your lot: slope angle, soil composition, frost depth, and how water moves through and around the build site.

That level of planning up front is what keeps foundations stable for decades in Colorado’s high country.

What Foundation Excavation Costs in Colorado

Every estimate is based on your specific site conditions. See our full pricing guide for more detail on what affects cost.

Basement Excavation

Starting at $25 per cubic yard

Can reach $100+ per cubic yard depending on soil conditions, rock presence, site access, and excavation depth. Mountain lots with bedrock or limited equipment access typically fall on the higher end of this range.

This covers the excavation portion of your foundation project. Full foundation pricing depends on foundation type, engineering specs, and site conditions. Contact us with your plans for a complete quote.

Seamless, high quality work and great communication. Mountainside Land Service listened to what I wanted and executed the vision perfectly. Made knowledgeable suggestions and were never pushy. Would work with them again anytime. Thank you to Jason and his team.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our gravel driveway in Fraser had potholes and poor grading. Mountainside Land Services did an A+-top-notch job of refinishing the drive--it looked like you could spread a picnic blanket on it. And Jason was a pleasure to work with. He took care of everything without the need for a f-2-f meeting: site visit, quote, convenient scheduling, flexibility, photos when the work was done. And his price was very reasonable, below other quotes, and well worth it. Thank you, Jason. Two thumbs up!

He was professional and relaxed throughout the process. He took the time to understand what we wanted, and made some excellent suggestions as well.  Could not be happier with the outcome.

Jason was great to work with and did an excellent job! He went the extra mile to make sure I was completely satisfied and happy with the work. I look forward to working with him again.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 Stars – Excellent Work and Professional Service We recently hired Mountainside Land  Services to help protect our barn from flooding, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. They built a well-constructed berm and raised the surrounding grade to divert water away from the structure. In addition, they installed a water collection box with piping to safely drain excess water away from the area. From start to finish, Jason is professional, efficient, and clearly experienced. He took the time to understand the layout of our property and designed a solution that addressed both our immediate needs and long-term drainage. The quality of work speaks for itself — everything was completed on time, and the site was left clean and tidy. Highly recommended for anyone looking for dependable, thoughtful excavation work!
