Kings Excavation & Construction

Every build starts with the ground.

Excavation, foundations, and full site work, done by a crew that shows up and finishes. We walk the site, build a proposal, and start building.

Our Process

A seamless process

We keep you in the loop at every step, so you always know exactly where your project stands.

01

Walk the site

We come out, walk the property, and talk through what you actually want. You leave with a clear plan and a real number, not a guess.

02

Design & plan

We lock the layout, materials, and grading plan with you. You see it before we build it, so there are no surprises when the machines show up.

03

Approve & schedule

You approve the plan and the price. We schedule the work and line up the right equipment to keep it moving.

04

Build & handoff

Our crew does the work start to finish. When we pull off the site, it's finished clean and built to last.

Why Us

Why homeowners pick us

Product quality, delivered efficiently. That's the whole job, and it's why customers call us back and refer us on.

Quality workmanship

Grades that drain, walls that hold, pours that stay true. We build to a standard we'd put our own name on.

Fair, honest pricing

We plan every job carefully so you get the best value. No overbuying and no padding, so you never pay for anything you don't need.

Transparency

You always know what's happening and what it costs. Clear communication and a real person to call, from first call to final grade.

One and done

We handle the full scope in house, so you're not hiring someone else to fix or finish. One team, one time, done right.

“King’s Excavation installed our septic system, graded our driveway and landscape, built our drainage trenches, excavated our utilities trench. Ian, the owner, stood above all others in the construction industry as the most dependable, honest, and tireless… I would not hesitate to hire King’s Excavation again. They are reliable, affordable and trustworthy… and they saved the day for us more than once.”

“I recently worked with Ian from Kings Excavation & Construction for a septic tank and had an outstanding experience. After contacting eight different companies, only one returned my call… and they referred me to Ian. Ian contacted me immediately and demonstrated professionalism, clear communication, and a well-thought-out plan for the project… I am extremely satisfied with the quality of the work, pricing, and the level of service provided.”

FAQ

Common questions

The stuff people actually ask before they hire.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes. We come out and walk the property to understand your vision, your budget, and the site itself. Then we put together a fair proposal with everything laid out for you, no obligation and no pressure. If it's a fit, great. If not, no hard feelings.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Kings Excavation & Construction is fully licensed and insured, and we're happy to provide documentation before any work begins. License #1129926.

How much does a project cost?

Every site is different. Cost depends on scope, access, soil and rock conditions, materials, and how much earth has to move. That's why we walk the site first and quote it honestly, instead of throwing out a ballpark that changes later.

How long will the work take?

It depends on the scope. Smaller jobs can wrap within a few days, while larger site packages, walls, and foundations take longer. We focus on doing it right rather than rushing, and we keep you informed the whole way. You'll get a rough timeline up front, before we ever break ground, so you always know what to expect.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

For work that requires them, we help coordinate the permits and inspections and build to code so your project passes cleanly. We'll flag what's needed when we walk the site.

Do you use your own crew or subcontractors?

Our team is in house. Our own equipment and crew handle the core excavation and construction work, so quality and scheduling stay in our hands from first cut to final grade.

Are you a local company?

American flag Yes. Kings Excavation & Construction is American owned and operated. We live and work in the same communities we build for, and we treat every site like it's in our own backyard.
