Pilon Construction is a heavy civil and site development contractor serving Western New York, the Finger Lakes, and Upstate New York. We prepare ground for the projects reshaping the region — data centers, energy infrastructure, manufacturing, and commercial development — with disciplined execution from first cut to final grade.
Bulk excavation, cut/fill balancing, engineered fill placement, and building-pad preparation with grade control suited to schedule-driven industrial work.
Storm, sanitary, and water main installation, utility trenching and structures, plus hydro excavation for safe digging around live utilities and congested corridors.
SWPPP execution, retention/detention systems, sediment control, and site stabilization that keeps inspections clean and projects moving.
Haul roads, laydown yards, crane pads, and aggregate placement — the site logistics backbone large projects depend on.
Structural excavation and backfill, footing preparation, and coordination with foundation and concrete trades on fast-cycle building programs.
Clearing, grubbing, selective demolition, and site strip work that gets greenfield and redevelopment sites construction-ready.
Upstate New York is seeing a generational wave of investment — semiconductor and advanced manufacturing campuses, hyperscale and regional data centers, solar and battery storage installations, substation and grid upgrades, and the commercial growth that follows. Every one of those projects starts with the same thing: a properly developed site.
Pilon Construction works as a civil sitework partner to general contractors, design-build firms, developers, and owners on that kind of work. We self-perform our core scopes, communicate like professionals, document everything, and treat the schedule as a commitment — because on large programs, the site package sets the tempo for everyone who follows.
Send us the plans. We'll give you a straight read on scope, schedule, and budget — and if it's not our lane, we'll tell you that too. That's how we'd want to be treated.
