Complex commercial and industrial properties demand an excavation partner with the experience, licensing, and fleet to execute precisely, without shutting down your operations. Lovett Services brings over 27 years of deep infrastructure expertise to every project, from sewer rehabilitation in tight urban corridors to large-scale civil site work across the Pacific Northwest.
Whether we’re separating aging party sewer lines in a 150-unit multifamily complex or installing fire suppression infrastructure for a new commercial build, our crews work with the accountability and documentation your municipality and your records require.
Every project backed by our CCB #125507 license, full project management, and full compliance documentation.
From sanitary sewer line replacement to party sewer separation, we restore aging underground infrastructure with minimal surface disruption. Our trenchless capabilities preserve parking lots, landscaping, and hardscaping while bringing your systems into full compliance.
We execute commercial site grading, utility trenching, and ADA-compliant concrete work to exacting standards. Every grade is engineered for proper drainage, and every concrete pour meets code, giving you a site that performs as designed for decades.
Domestic water line installation, commercial fire line connections, storm water facility construction, and catch basin maintenance, handling every critical utility system that keeps your commercial property safe, operational, and code-compliant.
A structured four-phase process that keeps your project on schedule, on budget, and fully documented.
We evaluate existing underground utilities, soil conditions, and access constraints before a single bucket drops, eliminating costly surprises mid-project.
Our team navigates all municipal permit requirements and public works documentation so your project launches on schedule with zero compliance gaps.
Trained operators execute the excavation scope with accuracy, protecting adjacent utilities, minimizing surface damage, and keeping the job site clean and safe throughout.
We restore the site to finished grade, complete all required concrete and surface work, and deliver full compliance documentation for your municipal and internal records.
Excavation projects carry real risk: both underground and in the permit office. Lovett Services takes total ownership of every phase, from initial site assessment through public works documentation and final site restoration. Our CCB #125507 license and 27+ years of commercial infrastructure experience mean you have a single accountable partner from start to finish.
Complete underground infrastructure solutions under one roof.
Horizontal directional drilling for underground utility installation with no open-cut trenching, ideal for road crossings, parking areas, and sensitive hardscaping.
Non-destructive vacuum excavation using pressurized water to safely expose underground utilities and dig in sensitive areas without damaging existing infrastructure.
Industrial vacuum truck services for catch basin cleaning, debris removal, and liquid waste extraction on commercial, industrial, and municipal properties.
Real results from real projects across the Portland metro area.
“Lovett sent Ryan, Phillip, and JD to hydro-excavate a new water line, completed in six hours and the invoice came in under the original estimate. Due to the overachievers Lovett sent, I couldn’t be more pleased.”

“On the same day Lovett’s excavation team reviewed the area, they dug to the broken pipe, repaired it, and smoothed everything out. Exceptionally skilled, efficient, and diligent—they saved our Thanksgiving.”

The longevity of your underground utilities depends heavily on the materials used during installation. Lovett Services specifies durable, commercial-grade materials engineered for the heavy usage and specific soil conditions of the Pacific Northwest.
Superior resistance to root intrusion, shifting soil, and corrosion: the right pipe for sewer and water line installations that last.
Sourced regionally for proper compaction and long-term stability during grading and trench backfilling operations.
Formulated for heavy commercial traffic and Pacific Northwest weather resistance, used for all flatwork and ADA-compliant ramps.
When traditional open-cut excavation is not feasible due to mature landscaping, recently paved parking lots, or strict surface preservation requirements, Lovett Services offers advanced trenchless pipe bursting technology.
Our pipe bursting service replaces failing sewer and water lines by pulling a new, high-density HDPE pipe through the existing line, simultaneously fracturing the old pipe outward into the surrounding soil. No massive trench required.
Common questions from property managers and facility directors about commercial excavation.
We specialize in excavation for multifamily complexes, commercial retail centers, industrial parks, and municipal facilities across the Pacific Northwest. Our fully licensed and insured team (CCB #125507) handles everything from utility trenching to complete sewer rehabilitation and civil site work for large-scale properties.
Yes. We utilize advanced trenchless capabilities including horizontal directional drilling and pipe bursting to replace failing pipes underground without destroying parking lots, landscaping, or hardscaping. Trenchless methods significantly reduce restoration costs and minimize disruption to your tenants.
Many older commercial and multifamily buildings share outdated sewer connections that no longer comply with current municipal standards. We carefully excavate the site, reroute the necessary plumbing, and install independent, code-compliant sewer lines, reducing liability and preventing shared system backups from affecting your tenants.
Absolutely. We manage every phase of your project including navigating strict municipal codes and handling all public works documentation. Our compliance reporting gives you the verifiable proof required for municipal public works preparations and internal maintenance records.
Yes. We execute commercial fire line installation in Portland, Oregon, trenching and securely connecting your building’s fire suppression systems directly to the municipal water supply, adhering to all public works testing requirements and local fire safety codes.
From sewer rehabilitation to civil site work, Lovett Services delivers precise, accountable excavation solutions for Portland’s most complex commercial properties.
