I hired Ben to excavate and install a patio in an area where we had a large pool removed. It was basically a gravel pit. He came right out to give me an estimate. I was first impressed with when I sent him a communication, he responded right back. When he performed the job, he did so in a very timely and professional manner. He had all the right material and equipment for the job, and strove for perfection in his work. The patio is gorgeous, strong, level, has a solid base, and will last for a lifetime of enjoyment. Do not hesitate to hire Ben! You won’t be disappointed!

Ben was able to layout and compact 12 cu. yds. of fill to level my front yard for a remodeling project. He did a great job moving material with his excavator, spreading it with the skid, and then patiently running the plate compactor until the base setup like concrete. He was also able to install solid granite steps, lifting the stone with his machine to carefully place each with just the slightest pitch to shed water. Nice guy with attention to detail and experience on how to do the job right. I highly recommend Ben!

Ben did a great job, and it really wasn't easy. The roots of the bamboo were extensive, but now they are above ground and ready to be disposed of.

It was nice meeting you guys :) I am very happy the excavator was the right machine for that project - those bamboo roots were tricky to tackle, but we got it done ✅

We hired Ben to lay down a gravel pad on a sloped area for a shed. He did a great job even in the middle of the summer heat! Thanks, Ben!
