Mark contacted me quickly after I contacted Angie's list and provided a clear, concise estimate within a day or two. Mark dropped off a sample of the new stone at my request. He and Alan completed the job within the two day estimate. It was a professional job and we are very pleased with the results. The price was reasonable to us, especially compared to other estimates received.
Description of Work: To grade an existing 2,900 SF driveway, remove the old dirt and stone, and to provide and spread approx 25 cubic yards of new red stone.

Mark was a very reputable businessman and he and his son did a great job. The area they delivered and spread stone looks really good and it is very level overall. I would definitely hire them to do another job for us.

Mark and Alan came out within just a few days and gave a very thorough evaluation and estimate. Cost was by far the highest of estimates gathered so did not go with them this time but would not hesitate to call them again and am confident I'd be happy with their work.

He's very good. He was fabulous. He was able to work very well to coordinate his work with the other people who he had to work with, so he coordinate with the other sub contractors and we didn't have to do much coordination he did that himself, he's very good.
Description of Work: He basically graded the whole yard, brought top soil in, he also put in all the drainage pipes for water to go to the sewer lines.

Mark Hendrickson returned my call promptly, and came to my house that afternoon to look over the site and to give me an estimate and a time frame. On the day of the job, he arrived right on time and had made arrangements with another company to have my septic pumped out, prior to the repair work. Even though this was a relatively small job, Mark and his son who works with him, were professional and polite through the whole process. The cost was $300 for the actual repair and digging and $300 to have the septic pumped out. I would not hesitate to use Mark Hendrickson Excavating again, they were great to work with!

I received a call back from them quickly, and made an appointment for a free estimate. They arrived on time, father and son team. They explained what needed to be done, and took some measurements so they could provide me with a detailed estimate. I received the estimate about a week later. The price seemed very fair, and they certainly seemed competent. In the end I decided no to use them because I ended up having to rent a back hoe anyway, and while I had it I did the work myself.
Description of Work: I contacted Hendrickson regarding digging a gravity drain for my foundation, and some trench work for retaining walls.

The home had no existing driveway, and Hendrickson was kind enough to drive by the place and give a good faith estimate. His was a no-nonsense estimate that would have fit perfectly within our budget. There was a lot of work to do there, but he didn't try to upsell. I will use this company again when the time comes. Trustworthy, kind and dependable.

Mark provided a detailed estimate and (unlike other contractors who provided bids) really gave me a feeling like he takes very seriously the customer experience. The other bidders seemed to treat me like I was an experienced contractor who understands all the steps, components and potential variations we might encounter. Mark provided a more realistic picture and recognized I am the homeowner who ultimately needed guidance and assurance through this process (which is a major investment, and can be downright intimidating and scary). My property was challenged by the presence of trees and subsurface rock, including bedrock. When he encountered heavy bedrock Mark was very proactive in addressing this issue by obtaining my permission and disclosing potential cost implications of bringing in extra heavy duty equipment to address the bedrock problem He effectively worked through it and was able to finish the job despite this challenge. Mark (and his son/partner Alan) were outstanding partners and made the overall experience most rewarding. I would not hesitate to wholeheartedly recommend Hendrickson Excavating to friends and neighbor's. Great job, Mark!!! Thank you!!!
Description of Work: Excavated and installed new septic system. Effectively rerouted existing building sewer to new gravity-fed system including tank, septic field. Utilized design provided by engineering firm, and made slight modifications based on subsurface conditions, i.e. presence of rock to deliver what I consider to be the optimum solution.

Mark promptly returned phone calls, arrived quickly to give an estimate, communicated clearly before and during the job, was very knowledgeable and experienced, kept to and exceeded the agreed upon schedule, worked beautifully with a big backhoe in tight quarters without doing any damage, coordinated well with the other contractors and inspectors, took his time, was calm and pleasant and left our property in good condition. His son Allan was also excellent and knowledgeable. They are a good team. We were blessed with great weather for the three days of our job and absolutely everything worked in our favor, but I think Mark and Allan would also do well when conditions were not so favorable due to their calm nature and wealth of experience.
Description of Work: He excavated for an underground propane tank and dug trenches for gas piping to a pool heater, generator and to the house and moved the gas tank and generator into place with his backhoe.

Hendrickson was prompt and professional. They provided what I considered a thorough and professional estimate within the time they committed. Unfortunately the total price, while fair, was outside of my budget and I had to delay the project. I would definitely call Hendrickson again.

Efficient, very neat gravel placement. Very pleasant to work with.
Description of Work: We had our long driveway regraded and new gravel placed down the length of it. It looks wonderful. We appreciate the gravel for its environmental friendliness. Now we can better appreciate its attractiveness as well, the gravel is an attractive color and was meticulously spread out. The Hendrickson's team were warm, friendly, professional and did the work sooner than we expected.

I requested the provider to give us his professional opinion on a failing septic system. He was very informative and gave us his opinion on how to go about solving our problem. Was able to provide us with the name of an engineer and told us that he would love to bid on the job if it became available. No hard sell just honesty and appreciated the fact that we valued his professional opinion. A++

We were very pleased with the Hendricksons. They did a thorough job measuring and preparing for this job and met with the mason to coordinate the concrete work that will need to be done. They were always courteous and professional and even introduced themselves to the neighbor to explain what the job entailed. We recommend Hendrickson Excavating!
Description of Work: Mark and Alan Hendrickson did demolition and excavation work for the house we are building and removed asphalt and concrete left from the house that had been demolished at the site. They excavated and installed pipes for storm water drainage and hooked them up to the downspouts. They also did some rough grading and installed a stone driveway and walk. They'll be back in the spring to finish grading and seeding.

The response to our original phone call was very quick and an explanation of the work to be done was very thorough on the first visit. We felt very comfortable with the experience and although we had other quotes that were a little less we felt based on the Angie’s List rating we would go with Hendrickson Excavating. The work was scheduled very quickly and when the work was complete you would not have known a basement crack had been repaired. Mark cleaned up the whole area making it look as if he had not been there. When the bill arrived we were given a further discount as the extent of the work required was a little less than quoted, which we felt was excellent, because being inexperienced as we are we, would not have known it took less to complete the job, very professional. We fully support Hendrickson’s high rating on Angie’s List.
Description of Work: - Chip out loose masonry along the vertical crack on the basement foundation wall - interior and exterior - Excavate down along the outside basement wall to the footer level to expose the crack below ground level - Fill in the crack using hydraulic cement on the exterior and interior wall - Re-tar the portion of the exterior wall that has been repaired below grade - Backfill excavated area(s)
