About
With over 20 years in business and 25 years of hands-on experience in land leveling, grading, excavating, land clearing, and shrub removal, my focus is always on quality and doing the job right the first time. I never cut corners and take the time to make sure you’re 100% happy.
If you’re seeing water pooling near your foundation or seeping into your basement or crawl space, I can assess and regrade the area to safely direct runoff away from your home.
I take pride in hard work, loyalty, honesty, and trust. I treat every property as if it were my own and communicate clearly from start to finish. You can count on reliable, high-quality results. Let’s talk about how we can protect and improve your property.

Josh was very responsive to my request. I needed help moving some dirt around to create a swail in my backyard and a new window well. And he did exactly that. Quality of the work was excellent. I would definitely hire him again

Josh was fantastic to work with. I needed part of a landscape berm leveled for a fence installation and needed it done quickly. He came out the same day I posted on Thumbtack to give me a quote, then was back the next morning to complete the job. He handled the work with skill and ease, and his pricing was reasonable. I also got to chat with him a bit during the job, he’s clearly a hard working, family oriented guy who takes pride in his work.

This professional offered a detailed cost estimate, which he honored despite spending more time than contracted. He was punctual and had all the equipment he needed, listened to my instructions and left the site in a tidy condition. Highly recommended
Josh was fantastic! As a female, I felt safe working with him. He was way more affordable than anyone else, and he did a phenomenal job. I am very happy with the results.
