Excavation & Drainage Contractor Serving Lafayette, NJ
Local Excavation & Drainage for Lafayette Properties
CP Clark LLC is an NJ HIC registered and insured excavation and landscaping contractor based in Newton, a short drive up Route 94 from Lafayette Township. Properties in Lafayette can include low-lying and creek-adjacent areas where grading, runoff, and saturated soils require careful drainage planning.
We work with a Bobcat E35 mini excavator and a Bobcat MT100 track loader with a brush cutter. The compact E35 is well suited to drainage trenching and tighter access, while the MT100 handles grading, clearing, and material movement on larger areas. Typical Lafayette jobs are drainage and grading for wet or low ground, site and pad excavation, and gravel driveways. You receive a clear written estimate that defines the proposed scope before work begins.
