Licensed Excavation Contractor, Anderson, CA.
Monroe Lee Has Been Doing This Work for 25 Years.
Lee One Construction is a licensed excavation and septic contractor, serving Anderson, Redding, and Northern California since 2020, with 25 years of hands-on field experience. Monroe Lee founded the company after building his skills over two and a half decades working excavation and septic jobs across this region. He is the person on the phone when you call, the person on your property during the estimate, and the person running your job from first shovel to final grade.
Family-owned means something specific here. There is no call centre routing your inquiry to a dispatcher. There is no subcontracted crew showing up with a different set of standards than the one Monroe holds himself to. When you call Lee One Construction, Monroe Lee answers. Every project that goes out under the Lee One name is a direct reflection of his reputation in this community, and a small business runs on that reputation or it does not run at all.
Twenty-five years of field work in Shasta County is not a credential to frame on a wall. It is a working knowledge of how soil changes character from the valley floor to the forested foothills, how inspector preferences at Shasta County Environmental Health shape what gets approved on the first submission, and how those variables affect whether a leach field performs well over 20 years or starts failing at year five. That knowledge goes to work on your project from the first site visit.


Credentials a Client Can Verify Before Calling.
CSLB Contractor License #1063228
Lee One Construction holds an active California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) license, number 1063228. This license is publicly verifiable on the CSLB website; any client can search the number and confirm it is current, active, and in good standing. Licensing means the contractor has met California's standards for contractor competency and carries the legal authority to perform the work.
Contractor Insurance for Every Job
Lee One Construction carries contractor liability insurance on all residential and commercial projects. Working with an uninsured excavation contractor puts the property owner at risk if equipment damages infrastructure, adjacent property, or subsurface utilities. Insurance is not optional it is the baseline for any legitimate contractor operating in California.
Based in Anderson, CA; Not Dispatched from a Distance
The business operates from 17255 Olinda Road, Anderson, California 96007-9110. Anderson is not a dispatch radius it is home. This matters for response time, familiarity with local soil and permit requirements, and the accountability that comes with doing business in the same community where clients live.
We Know This Ground; All of It.
Lee One Construction works across more than 40 cities in Northern California, from the flat agricultural land of the Sacramento Valley to the volcanic plateaus north of Burney and the steep forested terrain above Shingletown. That range is not just a marketing claim, it means the crew understands how soil changes character across counties and elevations, and how those differences affect every job from leach field sizing to trench depth and drainage grade.
Shasta County Environmental Health has its own requirements for septic system design, perc testing, and permit submission. Working with a contractor who has navigated that office many times is different from working with one who is learning the process on your project. Lee One Construction has completed permit applications and county inspections across this region and knows what gets approved and what does not.
From the rocky decomposed granite soils around Redding to the heavy clay layers common on Anderson and Cottonwood lots, and the iron-rich volcanic soils near Burney and Fall River Mills, different ground conditions require different approaches to excavation, septic design, and drainage. Knowing the ground before the first shovel turns saves time, money, and the kind of rework that happens when a contractor treats every job site the same.
Sacramento Valley Floor
Flat terrain, deep clay soils, drainage-sensitive lot development.
Shasta County Foothills
Mixed rock and clay, perc testing variables, forest interface lots.
Northern Plateau / Burney Basin
Volcanic soils, septic system sizing complexity, remote access.
Highway 299 and Trinity Corridor
Steep grades, erosion management, defensible space work.

We had Lee’s One Construction fix multiple water leaks across our large parking area. The plan was made, they followed it perfectly and left the job site clean. I highly recommend using Monroe and his boys.

Lee One Construction owner Monroe Lee picks up the phone, was great to work with and had my septic system diagnosed, fixed and up in running in less than a week. I would recommend them as they do top notch work for a reasonable price.

It was a pleasure working with Monroe’s son and staff. They were conscious knowledgeable and efficient. They showed up on time did the work and cleaned up. You couldn’t even tell where they had dug the ditch across my gravel walkway. I would recommend them highly.
