Rural Earthwork in the North County

Excavation contractors in Amboy work in a rural community in northern Clark County, where Chelatchie Creek and Cedar Creek meet, about 30 miles northeast of Vancouver on State Route 503. The community covers about 10 square miles at roughly 761 feet, with about 1,800 residents in 2020.

Settled in 1879

Amos M. Ball settled the area in 1879, and his family ran the post office established in 1880. The Amboy United Brethren Church, built in 1910, became a museum in 2000.

Creeks and buffers

With two creeks running through, many properties have stream buffers that limit clearing and grading near the water. We check those before planning work.

Common Amboy jobs

  • Clearing and stump removal
  • Long gravel driveways with culverts
  • Septic systems
  • Shop and barn pads
  • Ditch work

Rural services

Wells and septic serve homes here, and setbacks between them guide where everything else goes.

Planning trips

At this distance, we combine work into as few mobilizations as possible to keep costs down.

Rural roads

State Route 503 is the main route through Amboy, and many properties are reached by long private roads. Building and maintaining those roads with proper drainage keeps them passable for residents and emergency vehicles.

Wooded parcels

Much of the land around Amboy is wooded. Clearing for homesites includes stump removal and topsoil stripping where the house and drive will go, while the rest can be left natural.

Winter access

North county winters are wet and sometimes snowy. Roads and drives built with a good crown, fabric and compacted rock stay passable when unbuilt dirt tracks become impassable.
