Our Story

SAN ANTONIO'S TRUSTED EXCAVATION CONTRACTOR

J316 Excavation LLC was founded on the principles of integrity, hard work, and faith. The name "J316" is a reflection of our core values — a reminder that everything we do is built on a solid foundation, both literally and figuratively.

Based in San Antonio, Texas, we serve residential homeowners, commercial developers, general contractors, and property owners throughout South and Central Texas. Our service area spans from San Antonio and Austin to surrounding communities including New Braunfels, Boerne, Seguin, Kyle, and beyond.

With over a decade of experience in the Texas excavation industry, our team has the knowledge, equipment, and expertise to handle projects of any size — from clearing a residential lot to preparing a large commercial development site. We understand the unique challenges of Texas soil conditions, including caliche rock, expansive clay, and rocky terrain.

We are fully licensed, bonded, and insured, and hold SAWS (San Antonio Water System) certification for utility installation work — including water mains, sewer mains, lift stations, water hot taps, sewer taps, and civil project utilities. We also hold ROW (Right of Way) certification with the City of San Antonio, one of the most demanding credentials in the industry, requiring significantly elevated insurance coverage, a surety bond, and a full background check. Most contractors in San Antonio do not hold this certification. Our commitment to safety, quality, and customer satisfaction has made J316 Excavation one of the most trusted names in San Antonio area excavation.
