Where We Work

Excavation Across the Mid-Ohio Valley

Based in Lowell, Ohio — a 75-mile radius across southeast Ohio and the Wood County side of West Virginia.

We run a 75-mile radius out of Lowell, Ohio — up the Muskingum Valley, down the Ohio River through Marietta, Belpre, Parkersburg and Vienna, west into the Athens hill country and north through Caldwell, Cambridge and Woodsfield. Clay-heavy soil, shale and sandstone, spring runoff and flood-plain water tables are the conditions we deal with every week — and they are the reason drainage gets planned before anything gets built.

How We Work

What Happens After You Call

No sales pitch. We look at the ground, tell you what it needs, and put it in writing.

You call or send the form

Give us the address, what you want done and your rough timeline. We come back within one business day and book a time to see the site.

We walk the ground

We look at access, how water moves across the lot, where rock sits close to the surface, and what has to be cleared before anything else can start.

You get a written quote

Scope in plain language, and what would change it — rock, wet ground, hauled-off material. No hidden add-ons after the machines show up.

We do the work and clean up

Clearing, digging, grading and drainage in the right order, then a walkthrough with you at the end. Driveways and lanes left passable every day.

We are building our Google review profile — if you have worked with us, a review helps the next neighbor find us. Want to talk to a past customer first? Ask on the call and we will point you at recent work near you.
