A solid place to park

Soft Ground and a Heavy Rig Don't Mix

Park a heavy RV on grass or soft ground and it sinks, ruts, and sits on a tilt. A trailer or motorhome puts a lot of weight on a small footprint, and ground that wasn’t built for it gives way, especially through a wet Victoria winter.

An RV pad is a leveled, compacted gravel base made to carry that load and shed water. We dig out the area, lay and compact the gravel, and grade it flat with a slight fall so water drains off rather than pooling under your rig. Built right, it gives the RV a firm spot that holds up year-round.

Victoria ground doesn’t make that automatic. Rock near the surface, clay that holds water, and soft fill all work against a stable pad. We run compact excavators, dig down to bearing ground, and build the base back up so the surface sits true once the RV’s on it.

That’s the difference between somewhere to park and a proper place to store it.

From the Quote to a Pad You Can Park On

We check the spot and quote it straight. We look at the access, the ground conditions, and the size of your rig, then give you a written price and timeline.
We dig out the area. The excavator strips the sod and soft ground, cuts through rock if it’s in the way, and hauls the spoil off so the pad starts on firm footing.
We lay and compact the gravel base. We bring in the gravel, build the base up in lifts, and compact each layer down tight.
We grade it level and clean up. We grade the surface flat with just enough fall to drain, then tidy the site and walk it with you at the end.

Tired of parking on the grass? Call (250) 885-2213 and we’ll take a look at the spot.

Grant is an exceptional human and an incredible craftsman to work with. He genuinely loves what he does, and his mile-wide smile says it all. His passion for life shines through in his work, and it shows in every detail. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Lorne Robert

Chris and his team did an outstanding job! They were professional, efficient, and really knew their stuff. The excavation work was done on time and with great attention to detail. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and they left the site clean and ready for the next stage of the project. If you’re looking for a reliable excavation company here on the Saanich Peninsula, I highly recommend Chris and his crew!

Owen Bain

We've hired Auzzie a few times to expand our yard and worked with him on some other projects as well. Top notch operator and easy to work with, always friendly, knowledgeable and efficient! Will definitely be having him back

Chris Brunner

We hired Auzzie to put in a gravel driveway extension for us and are absolutely thrilled with the result! He is as masterful on the excavator as a surgeon is with a scalpel, and is thoroughly knowledgeable on all the little details that are often overlooked in getting the job done right. Also worth mentioning is that he made the whole job a lot of fun. Most importantly, however, is that he had the job done for us on time and on budget - and the outcome exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Auzzie for any excavation project!

Freddy Mazereeuw

When we needed to expand and level our yard for washroom trailer storage, Auzzie’s Earthworks was our first call, and they did a fantastic job. Chris quickly tore out bushes, regraded the area, spread gravel, and compacted everything down in just a few hours. The yard is now perfectly level and ready for our trailers. Highly recommend Auzzie’s Earthworks for anyone needing efficient, professional site prep!

Dynamic Fencing & Decks

We hired Auzzie’s Earthworks to help with a challenging fencing project through Dynamic Fencing, and the experience was fantastic. We initially discovered that under the thick ivy was nothing but rock, roots, and loose dirt—no stable ground for a fence. Auzzie came out for an estimate, and right away, he had a clear plan to remove the ivy, rock, and debris, creating a 2'x24' trench so we could put in a retaining wall. Despite having limited space to work in and being surrounded by raised garden beds, he completed the job efficiently and without disturbing the vegetable garden. His speed, precision, and skill were top-notch. Highly recommend Auzzie’s Earthworks for any tricky site work!

Christopher Aldridge

We recently worked with Auzzie from Auzzie’s Earthworks and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Communication was clear and fast from the start, which made planning a breeze. Despite our tight schedule, Auzzie was able to fit us in and arrived punctually, ready to go. The equipment he used was top-notch, and his skill in operating it quickly and efficiently was immediately evident. Highly recommend Auzzie’s Earthworks for anyone looking for a reliable, professional service

Bill Peck

Auzzie gives a master class in customer service and quality work with every project. He is very skilled and vitally, very knowledgeable of local district bylaws. An absolute pleasure to work with. I have no reservations recommending him for your project. You will end up with a fine product and have a bunch of fun along the way.

Built for the weight

Why Auzzie's Earthworx for Your RV Pad Installation

An RV pad stays level for years because of the base under the gravel. Building that kind of ground is what we do.

Built to carry the load. A dug-out, compacted gravel base holds a loaded RV without sinking or rutting. Grass and a thin layer of gravel won’t do the same.
Level, with a slight fall to drain. We set the pad flat to park on but sloped just enough that water sheds off the surface and away from the rig.
One crew, start to finish. We excavate, haul, base, and grade with our own machines, so the pad’s ready without lining up another contractor.

Straight Answers

Common Questions About RV Pads

Before we build a pad, people usually ask what it costs, gravel or concrete, and whether it will take the weight of their rig.

How much does an RV pad cost in Victoria, BC?

RV pad cost in Victoria depends on the size of the pad, how deep it has to be dug, whether there's rock to break, how much gravel goes in, and how easily equipment can reach the spot. A small trailer pad is a different job from a wide pad for a big motorhome. Send photos and rough measurements and we'll give you an accurate written quote

How long does it take to build an RV pad?

Most pads are a day or two. A bigger pad, hard digging, or rock takes longer, and you'll get an estimated timeline with your written quote.

Can you build a pad on a tight or awkward spot?

Yes. We use compact excavators that fit narrow access and work close to fences and buildings, so we can put a pad down the side of the house or in a back corner that larger machines would tear up getting into. We plan the route in before the machines arrive.

Gravel or concrete for an RV pad?

Gravel is the usual choice, and it's what we build. It carries the weight, drains well, and costs less than concrete, which is why most RV pads are gravel. If you'd rather have concrete, we do the digging, base, and grading to get the ground ready, and a concrete crew handles the pour.

How big should an RV pad be?

Size the pad to your rig plus a bit of room around it. It should be long and wide enough to park on with the slide-outs open and room to walk around, and to pull in and out without dropping a wheel off the edge. Tell us your rig's dimensions and we'll size the pad to suit.

Will the pad hold a big motorhome or fifth wheel?

Yes. A properly dug and compacted gravel base is built to carry that kind of load, and that's the whole reason for a pad over leaving a rig on grass or dirt. The heavier the motorhome, the more the base matters, and the base is the part we build.
