Excavation by a
crew that cleans up.

Excavation is not glamorous but it is where every good site starts. Whether you are running a new water line, digging out a failed subgrade, opening up a pond, or getting a footing dug, the crew behind the machines matters. We have put in the seats on excavators and skid steers long enough to read the ground as we go.

Up here in the Ozarks the dirt gets interesting quickly. You hit shelf rock, red clay, or an old buried stump at the same shovel depth. We come prepared for it and keep the job moving instead of calling to change scope the first time a bucket hits something unexpected.

How the job runs

• Walk the site with you, talk through what stays and what goes.
• Call locates for buried utilities before any dirt moves.
• Lay out the dig with stakes and marking paint.
• Strip topsoil and stage it on site or haul as you prefer.
• Excavate to depth and width, shoring or sloping walls as safety calls for.
• Haul off spoil, or balance on site if you want to keep the fill.
• Backfill and compact in lifts once utilities or footings are in.
• Restore the surface, clean up tracks, and finish ready for the next trade.

We run dedicated excavators, skid steers, dump trucks, and compactors. For the big jobs we size up to bigger iron. Our goal is to be the easy sub to work with on your project, on time and clean.
