WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

5.0(22 reviews on Google)

Real reviews from verified Google customers across San Antonio, Austin, and Houston.

“First let me say that when we decided to demolish and remove a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom mobile home in a remote hard to get to location I didn't have a clue how and how long it would take. I was lucky enough to find J316 Excavation and Dave. He was very transparent with the process, pricing, and timeline. The job was done in a timely manner and the site was left cleaner than expected. Highly recommend!”

“I'm truly grateful to Dave for helping complete a cleanup project on my property. He was extremely helpful, took the time to talk me through the process, and made everything feel straightforward and manageable. His professionalism and care really stood out — I couldn't have asked for a better experience.”

DIRECTORY LISTINGS

Being listed consistently across these directories (with the same business name, address, and phone number) is one of the most reliable ways to improve local search rankings. Each listing is also a backlink.

General Business Directories

These are the highest-authority citation sources. Being listed here with consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) data directly boosts local search rankings.

Contractor-Specific Directories

These directories are indexed by Google and provide industry-relevant backlinks. Being listed here also puts you in front of homeowners and GCs actively searching for contractors.

Texas & San Antonio Local Directories

Local and regional directories carry extra weight for geo-targeted searches. These are especially valuable for 'excavation contractor San Antonio' type queries.

IMPORTANT: NAP CONSISTENCY

When submitting to any directory, always use the exact same business name, address, and phone number. Inconsistencies confuse search engines and reduce the ranking benefit of each listing.

Subject: Guest Post Pitch — [Specific Article Title] for [Blog Name] Hi [Editor's Name], My name is Dave, and I run J316 Excavation LLC, a licensed excavation contractor based in San Antonio, Texas. We specialize in site work, land clearing, demolition, and utility installation across San Antonio, Austin, and Houston. I'd love to contribute a guest post to [Blog Name] for your audience of [homeowners / contractors / builders]. Here are three article ideas I could write: 1. "How to Prepare Your Lot for a New Home Build in Texas" — a practical guide covering land clearing, grading, and site prep steps that every Texas homeowner should know before breaking ground. 2. "What to Expect During Pool Excavation: A Contractor's Guide" — demystifying the pool dig process for homeowners and pool builders, including soil challenges, timeline, and what to ask your excavation contractor. 3. "Cedar and Mesquite Brush Removal in Texas: Methods, Costs, and What Actually Works" — a deep-dive into South Texas land clearing challenges that resonates with rural property owners. I write from real field experience — not theory — and I'm happy to include photos from our actual job sites to make the article more compelling. Would any of these fit your editorial calendar? I'm flexible on topic and can tailor the angle to your audience. Best, Dave J316 Excavation LLC (210) 425-8108 https://j316excavation.com
