Glen Ellyn, IL
Glen Ellyn is an affluent DuPage County village of about 29,000, roughly 24 miles west of Chicago, with a historic, walkable downtown and a median home value above half a million dollars. It is home to the College of DuPage, the largest single-campus community college in the Midwest, and to Lake Ellyn, the 1889 man-made lake that gave the village its name. Served by the Metra Union Pacific West line, Roosevelt Road, and nearby Interstate 355, Glen Ellyn blends established residential streets with a commercial core, giving Beeman Excavating work that ranges from home foundation projects and driveways to commercial site development and parking lots.
Glen Ellyn’s landscape was shaped by glaciers, leaving gently rolling hills and elevations between roughly 700 and 750 feet, with the West Branch of the DuPage River running through the area. The village is prone to flooding along the East Branch during heavy rain, and low-lying lots can collect water that threatens basements and undermines pavement. Northern Illinois freeze-thaw winters add stress, breaking down asphalt wherever drainage is poor. On every Glen Ellyn project, we prioritize grading and drainage first, directing water away from structures and building a compacted, stable base so foundations stay dry and finished surfaces resist cracking through the seasons.
