We started working with Daniel from MtnX in April of 2022. Our raw land needed to be graded according to the grading plan drawn up by our engineer. We hired MtnX due to his background, experience and expertise. Daniel was able to clearly explain in detail and picture for us, the steps he would take, the materials required, and how he would be able grade our property according to plan. No one else that we interviewed was able to explain the process. He provided a contract and we signed off to begin work. As you can see from the photos, he did a fantastic job! To begin with, he helped us grade the main area where our home will be built. He installed new culverts (as our were rusted and not usable) and two driveways according to plan. He removed two 80'(+) trees that we needed to have taken out. Then he helped us with a grove of 18 smaller trees that needed to be removed for the pad where the future home will sit. These were then transplanted by Daniel around the property. We needed additional assistance with the grading the land for our OWTS (Onsite Wastewater Treatment System) according to permit. He assisted with the leach field and next the trench was dug across the entire length of the property approximately 350' for the septic line to lay from the OWTS to where our second building will be. He helped correctly lower in our HLT system and level it. The county approved our OWTS. Next we needed to grade the upper pad for our second building according to plan and he was able to help with this. When the building materials arrived he was able to help us unload these very heavy steel beams. I'm sure I'm leaving something out but I guess what we want to convey is that Daniel is a hard worker and there isn't anything he really cannot do with the help of his equipment and experience. Expect him to arrive first thing in the morning and leave at dusk. We even had a situation where we needed his help and he did not hesitate to stop what he was doing on a weekend to come help us in the dark! Truly a pleasure to work with. You won't be disappointed and if you ever were, he'd make it right. That's the type of person you want on your job site!

Daniel is the kind of contractor you want. He is straightforward, honest, and will do what he says he will do. He has had wide ranging experience from earth work, retaining walls, erosion control, and others that give him a breadth of knowledge to bring value to a project. I would recommend him.

Very well, initially. Extremely friendly, and MTN X put in extra effort to get the job done appropriately. Will have to await long term picture to fully assess effectiveness of work done.
