Our availability depends on the season and current project schedule. During peak times, there may be a wait of a few weeks. During slower periods, we can often start within days. When we provide your estimate, we’ll give you a realistic timeline for when we can begin work.
We operate excavators, dozers, and grading equipment equipped with GPS and laser-guided systems. This technology allows us to achieve precise grades and elevations, which is especially important for commercial site work and conservation projects where tolerances are tight.
We operate most of the year, with typical slowdowns only during the coldest winter months from December through February when ground conditions make excavation difficult. Weather can affect schedules throughout the year, especially during heavy rain, but we’re generally available across most seasons.
We need to see the property and understand what you’re trying to accomplish. If you have plans, drawings, or specifications from engineers or conservation districts, those help us provide a more detailed estimate. Even without formal plans, we can assess your site and give you an idea of what’s involved based on your description of the project.
Weather, especially heavy rain, can affect excavation schedules. Wet ground conditions make it difficult to grade accurately and can damage equipment. If weather causes delays, we’ll keep you informed and resume work as soon as conditions improve. Most projects experience minor weather-related adjustments rather than major setbacks.
