Sick of your leaky basement? Call/text 607-857-7421 ⭐️ We do foundation repair, basement sealing, and if needed regrading around your house to get the water flowing where it should!

The below foundation that we worked on in the fall was crumbling in sections and leaking in several areas. We repaired the foundation, sealed it up, regraded the lawn, and installed a sidewalk along the house at the homeowners request.

Now Offering Horse/livestock burial services ⭐️ call/text/message 607-857-7421. As small farmers ourselves, we know first hand that death is an unfortunate part of all our beloved companions lives. Our local large animal vet made us aware that local horse owners are having difficulty finding someone to bury their horses on their property. Adding this smaller excavator to our fleet allows us to offer this service at a lower rate with quick response time, as we understand that often death happens unexpectedly.

Give us a call/message/text 607-857-7421 😀After back to back projects all year, we have room in our schedule for 1-2 more jobs before we shift our focus to our new workshop build this winter.

The pictured project was a concrete driveway expansion of 4ftx50ft on each side of an existing driveway plus an additional 8ft parking area. The operators in training had a fun time helping with the forms and stone base😊

Total landscape transformation!! After having a new home built, these homeowners were left with a rocky, uneven yard that was over a foot below where it needed to be by the house. So our project included bringing in over 400 tons of soil to level and shape the yard surrounding the house to blend with the existing terrain, installing a retaining wall, pouring a sidewalk, and finishing with straw and seed.

Let’s get that water flowing where it should be!! Last week’s project included correcting drainage issues throughout the property, installing Riprap and stabilizing undermined covert pipe/ditch, and regrading and adding stone to washed out driveway/parking area. The recent heavy rain storms have already put our work to the test and water is moving where it should!! It was a great project for a wonderful family😊Now on to some land clearing!
