Ivan excavated a section of our yard to level it out so that he could install a 12 x 18 gravel pad for our building. He did a fantastic job and communicated with us every step of the way. He added a section for the building ramp, which fit perfectly in front of the building. He offered many extra services along the way, including hauling a truckload of dirt and rocks we previously had sitting in our back yard as well as spread top soil, seed and hay across all of the bare spots in the yard. Unfortunately I didn’t get a picture of the gravel pad before the building was delivered, but you can see in the photo how perfectly the building fit. 10/10 recommend Honest Excavating!!!

It was a pleasure having Ivan on my property. Ivan, working by himself, demolished three old buildings. Taking care to save anything salvageable, following my requests to the letter, he was always on time with a smile on his face. He showed concern for my property, my animals, and me. I recommend him highly for any type of excavation work you need accomplished. I will call on him again!

Ivan did a fantastic job excavating rock and building two retaining walls for us as well as grading a backyard slope. Communication was excellent and price was fair. Cannot recommend him enough!

Ivan cleared a lot of thick brush on our property. We made some changes in plans between the time he looked at the job and the time he came to do the work. He was very accommodating to these changes, did an excellent job, and gave helpful advice. He also did a great job cleaning things up. He was able to clean up in just a short time what would have taken me many days to do. I highly recommend Honest Excavating.

We needed a hole dug for our bank barn foundation, and Ivan did the job carefully and efficiently. He met with us to understand the details of our project, worked steadily and was done within a few days. He was reasonably priced, including when he hit rock that needed to be broken out. Best of all, he was a pleasure to have on our property and we enjoyed his presence. We highly recommend his work.

Ivan did a fantastic job for us. He re-graded our long driveway to ensure proper drainage which was severely washed out. He also did some grading in the yard that was long overdue. We highly recommend him for your landscaping projects!

Honest Excavating is the perfect name for this business! They take the time to listen and understand the customers needs and vision on the project and deliver a quality service as if it was their own property and vision. Ivan always provided me updates and follow ups daily until the project was completed excally how I asked, and on time! Most professional and courteous contractor I've ever had the pleasure of working with.

Ivan provided excavation and hardscape for a shed pad in my backyard with very limited space. He patiently worked to create a pad that is both functional and looks good and was responsive to changes I made in the scope of the project. Even the fellows that built the shed were impressed with his work. I would highly recommend Honest Excavating.

Ivan helped us with a project at my Mother-in-law's place that has been a problem ever since she moved there. No one wanted to touch it, because it was in town and looked like a difficult drainage situation fed by a very active spring. Ivan came up with a plan and did a beautiful job at a reasonable price. He definitely is my go-to guy if I have other excavating jobs in the future.

Ivan was recommended to us by my brother-in-law. He did everything he said he was going to! Ivan is a one man crew that can get any job done. He went above and beyond when working on my project. He communicated everything that was going on, if he wasn't going to be able to come one day due to weather he let me know so we weren't left wondering. Whenever we have another project around the house that I can't handle I will definitely be giving Ivan a call.

Ivan has done a couple of projects for me, one was building a pond with a dam wall and the other was cleaning up a poultry house that had a collapsed roof.
He is a very hard worker and really goes the extra mile to make sure the job is done properly.
His communication is excellent and you know exactly what you are getting for your money.
I wouldn't hesitate to use him again!

Ivan is a neighbor and he did my work very satisfactorily. His trackloader is large enough to do any job quickly and efficiently. Ivan is a hard worker and his goal is to satisfy the customer. He did his marking and measuring in my presence. His rates are good and I will use him again in the future.

Ivan was a pleasure to work with. In May 2019, he did some work on our retaining wall and fixed our front yard so it wasn't so steep. During that project he noticed how washed out our gravel driveway was and offered an estimate to fix it. We never felt pressure to get this additional work done, we decided to have him fix the driveway as well and we are so glad we did. He was reasonably priced and always followed through and did exactly what he said he would do. We always knew when he would be working at our home and communicated clearly if he wasn't able to come out due to family commitments or weather. He did a fantastic job and made sure everything was perfect before he left. I would absolutely use him again!
