Julie H. says, "What a great job they did! Alex added 2 pads, removed the old parkstrip and replaced it. They had an amazing lead time. They were able to start the project within the week. I had 1 pad graded and the other not prepared at all. They moved the gravel from where my shed was and moved it over to my new garden area for me. They did a great job of lining up the new concrete with the old. In the front parkstrip, we had issues with some tree roots and alex made a cool design so it looked finished , and I could save the tree. The sidewalk was not even at all and they managed to make the parkstrip as flush as possible with the sidewalk. They managed to all this work without any damage to my garden in back. Alex even concreted in the new metal post for my mailbox. Last but not least , after power washing he noticed that some concrete dust-and stuff ended up on the street in front of my neighbors so he rented a street sweeper for my area. Great price, great job! Definitely when above and beyond!"See more

Mike M. says, "They came out quickly for an on-site estimate to remove three stumps in my backyard. They were courteous and we came up with an additional job of adding a small brick landing to the bottom of my patio stairs. Good communication before, during and after project. Called me when done since I was at work and explained everything in detail. Cleaned up after themselves and price was fair. Highly recommended."See more

Danny K. says, "I have nothing but good to say about JB Lawnworks! I was told on a Friday after that my house would be featured on the cover of a real estate magazine if I could have it ready by the following Monday - just 3 days. My wife and I started spring cleaning of the one-acre site but within 2 hours we realized there was no way we could do it by ourselves. I saw the reviews for JB, left a message on Saturday and despite the weekend they responded promptly, had a full cleaning crew on Sunday, brought in trucks of high quality topsoil and mulch, and by the time the photographer came on Monday, the place was in showing condition! They kept me informed of the cost as the job progressed, and the total cost was very reasonable, especially under the circumstances. From the first contact to the last, JB was wonderful to deal with. They were professional, helpful and friendly all the way! I will be using them again, and recommend them without hesitation! D. Kelly"See more

Reviews for Salt Lake City excavating contractors on Thumbtack

From Pedro H.

Pyramids Construction
Pyramids Construction
We hired Pyramids Construction to excavate and grade a new patio and install a water management system for the downspouts of our house. The work was done professionally and in the promised time. Eder was flexible, respectful, and suggested several improvements to our original design. We're completely satisfied with the result, and I would definitely hire Pyramids Construction again.
