What a blessing to have my driveway totally redone in just a day and a half. Beautifully finished with total attention to detail. Very professional, clean, neat, and organized. I am 100% satisfied. The crew even came back during this extended rainy period to check the drainage! Now that is dedication to a job well done. Thank you so very much.

Bob and Kurt did a fantastic job at reclaiming our woodland pond! They are extremely knowledgeable about landscaping and excavation and they were very careful to preserve the wildlife habitat that was already in place. Great workers and very friendly. Highly recommend!

Kurt and Bob replaced our failed septic system. They arrived when they said they would, and completed the work in a timely manner. They are very hard-working and give attention to detail. They clearly knew what they were doing and the project was completed without any issues. When the dirt inevitably settled around the tank, I called Kurt to request grass seed because I wanted to match the seed he originally used. He promptly delivered some. I highly recommend B and K Excavating.

This past summer (2023) B & K returned to our place to fortify the north east bank of our wildlife pond. Two summers ago they rebuilt the south east bank, and also graded and resurfaced the access road along its lower side. Previously, they installed a French drain in the area. These jobs done correctly are challenging, and B & K is always up to the task. They do a thoroughly professional job.If you have a project anywhere within their remit, call B & K! Some contractors bring hamburger; B & K always brings steak....

B & K Excavating did a fantastic job and went way above and beyond to fit my needs and budget. A family truly worth knowing and a pleasure to work with. Bob and Kurt were very patient with me and built me a beautiful retaining wall and graded the yard to correct a water drainage problem. They addressed every issue I had and constantly wanted my feedback. "Was I happy, did I like it, we can change it", very accommodating. I honestly can’t say enough about their work ethics and the timely completion of my job. The job site was always cleaned up every night they left. I am extremely happy and will use them again for future excavation projects. Thank you so much Bob, Kurt and Kim.

I could not be happier with the work provided by B&K! Their knowledge of septic systems & mountainside drainage was so comforting to someone unfamiliar with it all. They never seemed to mind my endless questions and I now have a much better understanding of how it all functions. Bob and Kurt work well as a team and provided reliable referrals to other specialists if/as needed (Greg was great!). Their attention to detail is notable and often difficult to find today. They will work with you on what you can afford and their prices were more than fair, even with inflation. I would never hesitate to contact them for help in the future and have already recommended them to a friend. You will not go wrong considering this (local & family owned!) business for your next project or repair. (They even gave into my dog’s tireless desire to play fetch and he will happily welcome them back anytime.)

Not only is Kurt Hall an excellent heavy equipment operator with a good touch, he is also a man of his word. To no fault of Kurt's, a bad load of material was delivered to my project. Kurt assured me he would make it right. He immediately contacted the trucking company and quarry while keeping in daily contact with me. Kurt kept at it until I was 100% satisfied. That means alot. I reccomend Kurt and Bob for your projects and will hire them again for my next.

B&K Excavating did a fabulous job and it was an absolute pleasure to work with them. Bob and Kurt helped us repair our driveway and fix some grading issues around the house and truly went above and beyond. They were very patient and communicated with us every step of the way, answering all of our questions and addressing our concerns. They even helped us fix some spouting issues that were unrelated to the work that was quoted.We are extremely pleased with their work and look forward to working with them for our future excavation needs. Thanks so much Bob and Kurt!Services: Landscaping, Outdoor plumbing system repair

Bob and Kurt installed a sand mound system on our property. They did an excellent job with the work. They were very professional and communicative. I really appreciated their attention to detail as they truly worked to understand our plans and property so that our system was installed and approved without issue. They even were able to save some money in the process. We definitely recommend them and will come back as we have more projects come up!

First, B&K Excavating is as their name depicts, an excavating and digging company. We had water coming through the base of the foundation into our finished basement. I contacted them through their webpage messaging system late on a Friday night and by Saturday lunchtime, Bob had called me. That Monday, Bob and Kurt were at our house to evaluate the foundation french drain issues and make their recommendations. By Monday evening we had an estimate in hand. The estimate was very reasonable (a coworker of mine can also speak to their pricing to be fair). They put us on their calendar for a few weeks later. Bob called a few days before the dig to let us know when equipment would be dropped off and work would begin. Bob and Kurt very efficiently worked around the weather that comes in early spring and got the job done. Bob contacted us after the job was complete to check in and give us the good news that the job came in under the estimate. Both gentlemen are polite, professional and prompt. I truly enjoyed speaking with and working with both of them. If you need any digging done, call B&K Excavating!

I'd give 10 stars if i could. We can't say enough good things about Bob & Kurt. These guys went out of their way to help us when we needed help badly...they came to the rescue! They did beautiful work and were just good people! They were quick & reliable. Always answered the phone & any questions we had. Worked hard. They did a beautiful job with the septic&mound and lot landscaping. Kurt explained what to do & what to use for a nice lawn & it turned out just as he explained it would. They fixed our water run off issue with our driveway too! We'll have you back for cheese steak hoagies again sometime when we need more done...lol. We would definitely hire them again. Thanks again guys!Services: Landscaping, Lot clearing

Had this father son team install a sand mound system to replace my failed septic. They were knowledgeable and actually made some recommendations that made my system better than the original design. When it came time to do the work they showed up when they said they would and put in some long days during some of the hottest days of the year to ensure minimal disruption of our normal use of water. Great to see a father son team running a business in this day and age. Their work ethkc is excellent and they are very good at what they do. Highly recommend theirservices!!

Bob & Kurt were great to work with. We had them clear and fill an old cistern and install pipes to route our roof rain water underground and away from our home. I've never been asked so many times whether I was well pleased throughout the entire job process. They did a great job at a fair price, were extremely pleasant and professional. What more could anyone ask?

Kurt went the extra mile to make sure things were done right and we were happy with the end result. If anyone needs a septic system installed or any other excavating these are the people you want.

We needed a place to store our new trailer and decided to build a stone pad. We called B & K and asked for an estimate. Bob knew the area and gave a very fair estimate within 15 minutes of our phone call without coming to our house! We set up a date and they arrived as planned and completed the job quickly and professionally. Bob and Kurt worked well together and were pleasant and personable . The final bill was slightly less than the original estimate. No hidden costs. We would hire them again without question! Two thumbs up for Bob and Kurt!

B&K Excavating went above and beyond to fix a septic issue for me. It was a big job and they finished even before they projected being done. Without them I would not have been able to settle on my new home. They came to my rescue!!! Thank you for everything you did and how fast you did it. Hands down this small business is who you want doing your next job.

I called them to get an estimate on clearing land at my cabin. The lady I spoke to on the phone was very nice and friendly....she told me she would have Bob call me back to set something up. Bob got back to me quickly the same day. Bob and his son Kurt came out on a Tuesday for my estimate and were willing to come back out the next day because of the weather coming that week. Kurt showed up at 7am like he said he would and got right to work. I told him what I was looking for and he nailed it. I would definitely recommend them to anyone. Actually I will be calling them back for more work on my property in the future.

One word...PHENOMINAL!We needed a sand mound septic system installed and called B&K Excavating. Kurt's enthusiasm for building sand mounds sold me from the first time I spoke to him. Bob and Kurt wasted no time, but took their time, installing the septic system. They were very knowledgeable and kept us informed every step of the way, answering every question we had in a way we could understand.Kurt kept in touch almost every day from the first phone call until after the project was done, making sure we were satisfied with the job they had done...and we are very satisfied! These guys go above and beyond to make sure things are done right and that you are happy with what they do;that's something you just don't see happen anymore.We will be calling them again!Service: Septic system installation

B&K performed work on our septic tanks to seal the riser joints and grade the lawn in an effort to prevent groundwater intrusion. We are pleased with the work Bob and Kurt performed for us. They responded to our phone call quickly, visited the site to provide us options, and gave us an accurate quote. We'll certainly contact them again in the future if we need excavation work performed.

I was looking for someone to replace landscaping in front of my house. I found Bob and Kurt online and they replied right away. They were great in listening to my needs, provided me some great ideas and gave me a quote for exactly what I was looking for my home. They performed the work on time and on budget. My wife and I are extremely pleased with their work and we will use B &K Excavating for all of our landscaping and excavating needs. They are outstanding workers and their work is second to none.

Owning a small farm we were really dependent on the existing pond that was on the property. Over the years it corroded down to nothing. Bob and Kurt were able to restore it back to its original glory:) We can't wait to get it stocked with fish now!!! Because of the outstanding work they did we now have them on another project and we can't be happier!! We are able to discuss ideas and they let is know if it's a practical solution. I definitely value their expertise and will be using them on any future project we may have.Service: Landscaping

I have nothing but good things to say about B&K Excavating. They were prompt in setting up a quote, and made sure they knew what we envisioned. They showed up when they said they would, gave helpful suggestions, and made sure that we were completely satisfied with everything. They didn’t rush through the job, even though they had to revise plans due to an issue with our soil where they were digging. I didn’t expect the attention to detail, as well as their tidiness. I will confidently recommend Bob and Kurt to friends and family.

We had some issues with a foundation wall that was damaged due to some other work being done at our home. B&K was here quickly to look at the damage, made suggestions on how to repair it, and was back to do the excavating within a few days to allow the wall to be repaired. They were back just as quickly to fill the area so that the other work could resume. Great experience and great folks.

These guys did an amazing job! I had a rather large heaped up garden in my back yard that I wanted to be leveled off for a pond and patio project. They leveled it off quickly and accurately making sure that the edges were finished off nicely. I would trust their equipment operations in the most tricky of areas. Really great guys to work with and I am certain to hire them again for any/all my other project needs! Thank you B&K !

Septic tank alarm went off this morning. Called B&K and immediately the phone was answered. Bob then called me back within minutes and came out same day to look into why the alarm was going off. Was very polite and knowledgeable and offered the most efficient and cost effective solution for us. This is my go to Septic, Excavation and Landscaping company going forward!

Over the past 20 years we've had reason to call on B&K and are always impressed with their ability to problem solve and find cost effective solutions where others could not. They've solved water run-off issues, helped us with a water line break, cleared trees and brush and numerous other projects. They do a great job at fixing up our gravel road and snow and lawn care. We highly recommend them.

We had an amazing experience with B&K excavating. They were quick to meet our needs of clearing and leveling a pad for our shed and fire pit area. They arrived early and worked hard all day to get the job done. Our original plan ran into a snag and they came up with a solution that was even better than our original plan.
