Danielson Excavation With a Short Drive
Danielson is the busy center of Killingly, which keeps our schedule here split between shopfronts downtown and homes on the streets around them. The loamy sand under most of the borough percs beautifully for septic and gives a foundation a solid footing, provided it's compacted the right way. From Davis Park out toward the community college campus, we've dug enough of these lots to know the pace. And because we're only eight miles off, a Danielson call usually gets a same-day answer.
Eight miles out keeps our travel time short and your costs down when you build in Danielson. We're close enough to feel like the outfit down the street, and we treat the work that way.
