Why us
Three owners, 54 years in the trade
Triple D is owner run. Between the three of us there's 54 years of excavation and site work in this valley, along with the relationships that come from working in it that long. You won't get a salesman on the phone and a stranger on the machine.
We take the jobs that fit and say so plainly when one doesn't. Small lots, tight access, work that has to happen next week. Those are worth our time.

How a bid works
From your email to a number
Send the scope
Email us or use the form. Plans, a plat map, a pin drop and a description. Any of it gets us started.
We look at the site
Access, soil, slope, where the water goes. Most cost surprises in excavation live right here.
You get a written bid
Broken out by line item, unit priced where that fits, exclusions stated plainly.
We dig
Locates called before anything breaks ground. We walk the finished grade with you before the machine leaves.
Where we work
Homedale out, as far as the job justifies
We're in Homedale, so the Treasure Valley and the Owyhee County side are home ground. We take work further out when it's worth the trip, and mobilization is quoted on its own line so you can see what the travel costs before deciding.
Remote sites, steep ground, and jobs the last contractor walked away from are worth an email.

Questions
Things people ask
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, both. Registered with the state and carrying general liability and workers' comp. Ask and we'll send a certificate naming your entity before we mobilize.
How much does excavation cost?
Nobody can quote dirt sight unseen, and anyone who does is guessing. Access, soil, rock, haul distance, how much material comes in or goes out, how tight the finish tolerance is. All of it moves the number. That's why we walk the site and send a written breakdown instead of a range.
Do you handle permits and utility locates?
Locates get called on every job, no exceptions. On permits, the bid says which ones we pull and which stay with the owner or GC, so nothing falls between us.
Will you travel to my project?
We work statewide. Anything outside the Treasure Valley gets mobilization on its own line, so you can decide whether the trip pens out before signing.
Can you work in winter?
Depends on frost depth and whether we can get to the site. Utility work and demo often keep going. Finish grading and compaction usually wait for thaw, and we'll say so rather than sell you work that won't pass inspection.
Do you work directly with homeowners?
Yes. Builders, GCs, developers and homeowners. A single driveway or septic system is a real job to us.
Got dirt to move?
Send us the scope and you'll get a written number back from the person who'll be running the machine.
