Thankful for rain!

Not thankful it washed out the dirt we put here, but that's something that's an easy fix - we need the rain ;) 🌧️

We will be out all next week, but if you have a project brewing this summer that requires gravel, dirt, small excavation / clearing work, or new septic installation, shoot us a note!

Yay for rain yesterday!

Happy Friday and thanks to all who continue to support small businesses - the backbone of our economy. 😀

Let's all do a rain dance. It's a hot & extra dusty kind of day.

God bless all the farmers and home gardeners!

Confused about gravel types? 🤷‍♂️🤔🤷‍♀️

We get it and here's a little guide - follow the picture left to right (photo taken in the cab of the truck 😉) :

4A or railroad ballast - primarily used as a base on bare ground for heavy equipment and heavy vehicle traffic

#57 - traditional driveway gravel with existing base (not the best for steep grades because it will definitely spin and be too loose)

#67 - used frequently for areas that needs a smoother ride or foot traffic / level ground

#78 - pea gravel used a lot in patios, walkways, landscaping, etc.

Need some gravel this Spring or Summer? Shoot us a note! :)

This work view isn't so bad most days :)

If you're planning any type of gravel or dirt projects, need a spot of land graded or cleared up, or you have new construction that requires a septic installation, let us take a look and provide a quote!

We love being based in our (long-time) hometown and appreciate every customer!

Hope everyone has a good day.

You know what we miss about working in a corporate job?

NOTHING. 😊

Not. One. Thing.

We like dirt.

And trucks.

And gravel.

And digging.

Need help? Shoot us a note! :)

Last year, Kenny Barnes decided to venture into new septic installations with the brother-in-law Jordan Boyette, and they both studied (a LOT) for a test that isn't easy. It took a lot of time & effort.

Last week they successfully completed the first new septic installation with a clear inspection, so now for more!

Throwing back to a picture of studying in the lobby before the test.

Goals. Actions. Results.

Way to go guys!
