Kurt and his guys did a great job for me. Communication was excellent and I am happy with the way he ran the site. I will gladly recommend them to others.

Kurt removed some dirt and rock from our property. He did a great job and pricing was very fair. We would definitely use them again for future projects.

Scarberry Excavating recently completed a demolition project for me and I have nothing but great things to say about the experience! The owner and his staff are extremely helpful and professional, the job was done timely, and the results look great. They went out of their way to make sure everything was as expected before leaving the job site, and in my opinion went above and beyond. I would highly recommend this company!

5 stars for Scarberry Excavating. A+ work. A seasoned local who has been in the business since 1988, Scarberry Excavating took the time to walk our lot with us to understand the scope of our project and our excavating needs. They replied promptly with a detailed, honest, and competitive estimate, and the work was started, and completed, on time. Our communication with Scarberry Excavating through the duration of the project was excellent. We highly recommend Scarberry Excavating for your excavating needs!

As part of the renovation of our new old house Scarberry Excavating installed three piers and a steel beam to shore up part of the foundation. They did a good job at a reasonable price with excellent, no-hassle follow up. Winter weather had arrived but the crew was on the job anyway when we arrived with snow shovels to clear the driveway and sidewalk. Kurt's guys offered to shovel it for us! On their lunch break! Yes, we recommend them.

We have used Kurt Scarberry for digging our basement, grading our lot and digging our boat well. He knows what to do and is very efficient. We recommend him to anyone we know. We do not have an easy flat lot and we have zero issues with grade and water. His experience shows when he is done. He is very professional, fair and respected by all the local builders and inspectors.
