ABOUT

In 1971, we began in the Agricultural Drainage business. Starting with our own farms learning the trade, before starting into the custom drainage work. By 1980, we added a large dozer with a plow for increased products to keep up with demand. In 1988, we expanded again by bringing on our first excavator. Again to keep up with demand, we soon had a second excavator. In 1997, dad retired from ownership and brother Phil who had worked with us for many years joined as a partner with myself, Scott.

 

The tradition of family owned and operated continued as well as the company growth. Over the years we have put a lot of pride into the customer service end of building a punctual reputation and fair prices. We like to feel that this has been very important and successful based on the amount of repeat business and customer referral work that keep us busy today.
