Excavation, Septic, Hauling & Site Work in Island Pond, VT
One owner, one machine, and our own dump truck. We dig it, we set it, and we haul it — septic is our specialty and every job is fully insured. Quoted straight, finished clean, across the Northeast Kingdom.

Excavation & Site Work
House sites, building pads, and final grade. We pull stumps, handle small demolition, and dig utility trenches — water, power, and conduit — so your site is ready for the next trade. One machine, one operator, and material hauled off in our own truck. We read the ground before we cut it: ledge, springs, and frost lines all change the plan, and we plan for them. You get a straight quote up front and a clean finish line.
- House sites, pads, and finish grading
- Stump removal and small demolition
- Utility and water-line trenches

Septic Installation & Repair
Septic is our specialty. We handle new installations and repairs — the excavation, the tank set, the leach field, and the backfill — and we coordinate what the job requires so it's done right. Fully insured, and we work the dirt and the install together instead of handing you off to a second crew. If your existing system is failing, we'll dig it out, find the problem, and tell you straight whether it's a repair or a replace. No inflated scope, no surprises after the quote.
- New septic system installation
- Repairs to tanks, lines, and leach fields
- Fully insured — dirt and install handled together

Dump Truck Hauling & Stone
Stone, sand, gravel, ledge, and debris — in and out. Because we run our own dump truck, we don't wait on a hauling sub to clear your site or bring your material. Need a load of crushed stone for a soft spot, gravel for a base, or someone to haul off the broken concrete and stumps? We load it, we ship it, we're done. If it fits in the truck, it ships. Same crew that dug it moves it, so the job stays on our schedule — and yours.
- Crushed stone, sand, and gravel delivery
- Ledge and debris haul-off
- Same crew digs it and moves it

Driveways & Drainage
Driveway rebuilds, fresh stone, French drains, and the spring water that has to go somewhere before it wrecks the road. Northeast Kingdom driveways take a beating — frost heave, runoff, and soft spots that open up every mud season. We re-grade, re-stone, and put the drainage in so it lasts past one thaw. Culverts, ditching, and French drains are part of the same visit, not a second call. You get a driveway that sheds water instead of catching it.
- Driveway rebuilds and re-stoning
- French drains and ditching
- Culvert installation and spring-water routing

Land Clearing, Bush Hogging & Right-of-Way
Lots, long driveways, roadside, and right-of-way. We clear the trees and brush, bush hog the overgrown fields, and prep the ground so you can build, mow, or just see the property line again. Right-of-way and roadside work keeps access open and sight lines clean — the kind of work the town and the trail clubs notice. From a single overgrown lot to a long driveway that's grown in since last fall, we cut it, mow it, and haul off what needs to go.
- Lot and long-driveway clearing
- Bush hogging overgrown fields
- Roadside and right-of-way maintenance
