Excavation Contractors in Felida, WA

Excavation contractors in Felida work on some of the larger suburban lots in southwest Clark County, about 7 miles north of downtown Vancouver and northeast of Vancouver Lake. The community sits at about 210 feet and grew from 7,385 residents in 2010 to 9,526 in 2020.

An unusual name

A post office operated here from 1890 to 1906. One account says the community takes its name from Felidae, the cat family, after the first postmaster's preferred name, Lakeview, was already taken in Washington.

Lots with room

With larger parcels than many nearby communities, projects include shops, barns, RV pads, long driveways and clearing for gardens and pasture.

Drainage toward the lake

Land slopes toward Vancouver Lake and its lowlands. Runoff from upslope lots and wet winter soils make drainage planning important.

Common Felida jobs

• Shop and barn pads
• Clearing and stump removal
• French drains and tightlines
• Gravel driveways and turnarounds

County permits

Felida is unincorporated, so Clark County handles permits. Clearing near streams and wetlands has buffer rules.

Older homes and newer infill

Felida mixes homes built on large lots decades ago with newer houses on divided parcels. Infill means clearing, pads and new utility connections squeezed between existing homes and trees.

Trees worth keeping

Mature firs and maples are a big part of the area's character. We plan trench routes and access to protect major roots and avoid compacting soil under drip lines.

Wells and septic

Some older Felida properties still use septic. We dig test pits and drainfields to approved designs.
