Locally Owned, Owner-Operated Excavation Services You Can Trust.
Company Story
After over 35 years in the construction industry, I decided to go out on my own and start a business. I have a small commercial backhoe that gets the job done. A Guy with a Backhoe is a locally owned and owner-operated excavation service focused on quality workmanship and reliable service. We specialize in small to medium residential and light commercial projects, ensuring every job is completed with precision and care. I'm here to help with your project that needs some help, such as excavating for a pond, driveway addition, or patio pad. I can assist with that DIY project or take care of the complete job. I do storm water management, ground leveling, and move dirt, mulch, or rock. I am an alternative to you renting and operating the equipment yourself, often at a lower price. Please contact me to discuss your project. A Guy with a Backhoe is licensed and insured and offers free estimates.
