I handle excavation, grading, retaining walls, and drainage work throughout Birchwood. A lot of properties here come with elevation changes and water challenges, and I build everything with that in mind from the start.
Birchwood has a lot of lake properties and sloped lots that need more than basic excavation. These jobs require planning, not just moving dirt.
That’s the type of work I enjoy because when it’s done right, it completely changes how the property functions.
Getting equipment in, working around existing structures, and managing elevation takes experience. I’m used to working in those conditions and making things come together clean.
A lot of sites here aren’t ready to build on without real prep. I handle clearing, grading, and pad work so the project starts off on solid ground.
Instead of forcing the land into something it’s not, I grade with the natural layout in mind. That helps control water and keeps everything stable.
On sloped lots, retaining walls aren’t optional. They need to be built correctly or they fail.
I build boulder walls that hold, drain properly, and look like they belong there.
Water is one of the biggest issues on these properties. I build drainage systems that move it away from structures and prevent erosion.
I work throughout Rice Lake and the surrounding areas including Sarona, Birchwood, Shell Lake, Spooner, and across Barron, Washburn, and Sawyer counties.
If you’re nearby, there’s a good chance I cover your area.
