Services You Can Trust
From underground utilities to site clearing, Scorpion Backhoe Inc. handles tough jobs across Southern California with the right crew and equipment.
Scorpion Backhoe Inc. is built around getting the job done right the first time. We work on projects that require real experience, from trenching and underground utilities to full site clearing and demolition. Our team shows up ready, with the equipment and know-how to handle changing site conditions without slowing things down. Whether it’s a residential build or a larger commercial job, we keep things moving.
We’re a licensed and bonded team serving Southern California, and we take that responsibility seriously. Every project starts with a clear plan and honest communication so there are no surprises along the way. We work closely with homeowners, contractors, and municipalities, focusing on timelines, safety, and practical solutions that actually make sense on-site. It’s not about overpromising, it’s about doing solid work you can rely on from start to finish.
Grading & Underground Services
From grading to utility installation, we handle the groundwork that keeps projects moving across Southern California job sites.
Grading
Grading is where every solid project starts. We prepare sites for building by leveling, shaping, and compacting the ground so everything above it holds up the way it should. Whether it’s a new home, commercial lot, or site redevelopment, we make sure drainage is handled properly and surfaces are ready for construction. We work efficiently, keeping timelines in mind without cutting corners that cause problems later.
Slope and Subsidence Repair
Unstable ground can cause serious problems if it’s not handled early. We work on slope stabilization and subsidence repair by reshaping land, improving drainage, and reinforcing affected areas. Every site is different, so we take the time to approach each one based on what’s actually happening on the ground. The goal is to create long-term stability, not just a quick fix.
Underground Utilities
We install and expose underground systems, making sure everything is placed where it should be before the next phase begins.
Underground Dry Utilities
We handle trenching and installation for dry utility lines, including power, telephone, and conduit systems. Our crew works carefully around existing lines and follows plans closely to avoid delays or rework. It’s about getting everything in place safely and ready for connection.
Storm Drain Systems
Proper drainage matters more than most people think. We install storm drain systems that help control water flow and prevent flooding or erosion on your site. From trenching to pipe placement, we make sure everything is set up to handle real conditions.
Sewer and Water Services
We install sewer and water lines with attention to grade, connection points, and long-term performance. Whether it’s a new install or tying into an existing system, we make sure everything flows the way it should and meets local requirements.
Gas Installation
Gas line installation requires care and precision, and we take that seriously. We prepare trenches, place lines correctly, and coordinate with the right teams to ensure everything is installed safely and ready for inspection and use.
Excavation, Demolition & Site Work
We handle the groundwork that keeps projects moving, from excavation and demolition to material hauling and site repairs.
Excavation
Excavation is at the core of what we do. We handle everything from trenching and utility exposure to full site digging for new construction. Our crew works with the right equipment for the job, adjusting as site conditions change so work doesn’t stall. Whether it’s a tight residential space or a larger commercial site, we focus on clean, accurate work that sets the rest of the project up properly.
Demolition
Demolition work needs to be done with control, not guesswork. We take down structures, remove concrete and asphalt, and clear out debris so sites are ready for the next phase. Our team works safely and efficiently, using heavy equipment to handle tough removals without unnecessary delays. From small tear-outs to full site clearing, we keep the job organized and moving forward.
Aggregates
We supply and place aggregates for a range of construction needs, including base materials, backfill, and grading support. Having the right material on-site at the right time helps keep projects on schedule. We handle delivery and placement so everything is spread and compacted properly. It’s a straightforward part of the job, but it makes a big difference in how well the finished work holds up.
Concrete and Asphalt
We handle concrete and asphalt from start to finish: removal, site prep, and installation. From breaking out old driveways and slabs to pouring new surfaces, we bring the right equipment and leave every site clean, level, and ready to build on.
Trenching Services
Trenching is a key part of utility installation and site prep. We dig clean, accurate trenches for power, water, gas, and drainage systems, ensuring proper depth and alignment. Our crew works efficiently and carefully to keep every trench ready for smooth installation.
We Also Offer Operated Equipment Rentals
We offer heavy equipment rentals to help keep your project moving, with machines ready for excavation, grading, and site work.
Sometimes you just need the right machine to keep things moving. We offer a range of heavy equipment for rent, including dozers, backhoes, excavators, loaders, and more. Our equipment is job-ready and maintained so you can rely on it when it matters. Whether you’re handling part of the work yourself or need support on-site, we make sure you have access to dependable machinery.
We also provide support equipment like dump trucks, water trucks, graders, and compressors. If you’re not sure what you need, we can help point you in the right direction so your job stays on track without unnecessary delays.
