Excavation & Land Services for Upper Peninsula Property Owners
Property problems up here usually come down to water, access, or ground that won’t behave. We handle drainage work that keeps water away from foundations, gravel driveways that hold up through freeze–thaw cycles, and grading that fixes slope issues instead of masking them.

Our Ground Work Survives Harsh U.P. Winters
When excavation work goes wrong, the problems don’t show up right away – they come back with water, settling, and repairs. We stay involved from start to finish, make decisions in the field, and focus on the details that keep the work from needing to be redone.
- Direct communication with the owner on every project
- Professional excavation training and hands-on field experience
- Equipped to handle residential properties, new construction sites, and commercial projects
- Serving Marquette County and surrounding Upper Peninsula communities
Why Our Excavation Work Holds Up Over Time
Most excavation problems come down to small decisions missed in the field – grade that’s close enough, drainage that almost works, base that wasn’t built for the conditions. We pay attention to those details because that’s where long-term failures start.
Our approach is simple: understand how water moves, how the ground behaves, and what the property needs to hold up season after season. If the fix doesn’t change the outcome, the work’s not done.
