My husband and I had received several verbal recommendations from friends and neighbors about Joe's Excavating. Joe personally returned our calls, met us to discuss the scope of the project and performed the actual work. He and his team were punctual and very considerate of our neighbors. I was happy to see that they brought equipment that was properly scaled to our project and that they were also very careful, aware and gentle with the surrounding trees and vegetation that were to remain. Everyone on the project was courteous and very easy to work with. They were patient with our questions and were knowledgeable about plant species, topography, soil makeup and other considerations specific to the area. My husband and I are completely satisfied with every aspect of the completed work and will definitely be working with Joe when we break ground for our lake cabin. Highly recommend!
