Built by a Family Who Knows the Dirt

We are a family-run excavation company that started with a shovel and a vision. After working alongside our father for more than a decade, we saw the need for a cleaner, more reliable approach to excavation. Today, we operate with six full crews and a team of up to 30. Licensed in Nevada, California, and Idaho, we take on large-scale projects that many excavation contractors avoid. From steep slopes to tight urban spaces, we handle every challenge with planning, precision, and well-maintained equipment. Our hands-on approach and commitment to doing things right set us apart on every job we take on.

Get The Job Done Right The First Time

We do things right the first time and keep your build moving without surprises. Our team handles residential excavation, commercial excavation, demolition, large rock removal, conveyor belt machine services, and custom rock retaining walls. Each job is managed with care, from permitting to haul-off, for clean results you can build on.
