How an excavation job goes with Justin
Most jobs follow the same five steps, whether it's a sewer hookup in a village or a house site on a mountain road.
- You call. Justin answers. Tell him what you've got and where it is.
- He walks the site. Free, usually within a few days. He looks at access, slope, rock and water, then gives you a straight price.
- Utilities get marked. Justin arranges it before any digging starts, so you don't have to.
- He digs. Justin runs the machine himself and keeps you posted if the ground throws a surprise.
- He cleans up. Spoil graded or hauled, site left neat. Customers say it every time.
Not sure which service fits? Most jobs touch more than one. A new house might need land clearing, site excavation, utility trenching and a driveway. Just describe the project and Justin will sort out the rest.
Word around town
What customers say about the work.
Justin did an outstanding job! He excavated the site for setting (6) - 4' tapered precast piers to support a covered front porch I am building. He was quick to respond… making sure that all the Utilities were marked and the site was safe. He did what he told me he was going to do and did more than what was expected.
Justin's done several jobs for us, each one terrific. He just cleaned out some old foundation walls that had been neglected for 20 years, and did a precision job in less than a day. He's smart and solves problems if they arise. As a plus, he has a sense of humor!
