I have a long, hilly driveway which washed out whenever we had heavy storms. My family lovingly called it the “goat path”. Chris addressed the drainage issue and recommended asphalt millings to top it all off. He leveled everything out and now it looks fantastic. I highly recommend CTX Excavating!See more

I called around and out of the many different companies I called, CTX was the one I ended up choosing. Chris was responsive, flexible, and easy to work with, especially around the holidays and winter weather. He was even able to accommodate coming back to help with backfilling the trench, which I initially thought I'd be able to do myself (note to self: 25 cubic yards of muddy soil is extremely hard to move by hand!).See more

Chris did a great job landscaping our backyard patio and we have no complaints. Even though the weather didn’t cooperate he worked a 12 hour day to finish on time. He actually went above and beyond what was on the estimate and left everything spotless. He is highly skilled at running the equipment and has a good eye for detail. Plus Chris is probably one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet.See more

Chris came out to look at it and we discussed a couple different options and came up with a plan. Chris's suggestions were fantastic. He's very easy to work with and very good at responding to text messages and calls.

He ended up regrading and widening the driveway and also suggested using millings instead of gravel. It's been about 9 months since he completed this work for us and we couldn't be happier. He was very respectful of the property and our expectations. We recently got bombarded with flash flooding and rain that the area hasn't seen in a decade. The driveway redirects the water into the storm drain and has not washed out at all. His work is top tier and we highly recommend him to our friends and neighbors.

Looking forward to working with him again on other projects.See more

Despite having two sump pumps, and internal French drains, we've had issues for almost a decade with our basement flooding. This is especially true when we have major storms, long multi-day rains, or flood warnings...events that seem more common than a decade plus ago when we moved here. Sump pump upgrades and servicing of our internal French drains were not enough.

Over the past several years we were quoted for French drains by other contractors, and listened to plumbers give other ideas about how they would fix the problem. None of which were reasonable; we were always skeptical of the high costs involved and the takes some of the contractors had about how they would fix the problem.

On a whim, calling around again concerning French Drains, we called Chris at CTX Excavating. He brought really practical ideas to the table about how he would attack the problem. His pricing was competitive. Chris suggested a partial French drain around the rear of our home where most of the water enters our basement after collecting in the yard. After beginning excavating, Chris revealed the problem...massive amount of water sitting up against our foundation with nowhere to go (see photo). His French Drain installation instantly began to move water away from our house before it was even complete, and we've weathered a pretty serious storm already with no water in our basement.

I would recommend CTX Excavatiing. Chris did a very good job for me. He was easy to work with and very professional. If you want quality work at a fair price, call CTX Excavating.

CTX Excavating LLC performed a Driveway expansion, fill dirt buildup and graded and rocked 2 RV Parking Pads. They were on time, well priced and performed as expected. Very happy that we went with CTX and will be using again on future projects!

From the start Chris was quick to respond, showed up on time, and gave us an estimate quickly vs other companies that took weeks to merely get a reply from. We hired CTX to regrade our backyard which was hilly and improperly graded. Chris remedied the problem in no time and we are absolutely thrilled with how the project turned out. We look forward to being able to use our new backyard when the grass grows in! We would absolutely recommend CTX to anybody who needs excavation services. You won’t be disappointed!!!See more

When Chris contacted me , I had a yard that was pretty much useless. It consisted of a lot of weeds, a few spots of grass, and was such a steep hill that I rolled down it more than once! We nicknamed it the Back 40!
I had gotten three or four other estimates to make it as level as possible so I could use it and also, when the time came, list the home for sale with a fenced-in back yard!!

Chris delivered exactly what I wanted, at a fair price, and more!!!
He and Devin thought out of the box and came up with a design that I couldn't even imagine requesting. It's beautiful.
I would highly recommend CTX excavating and the owner Chris for any of the work you need done.See more

CTX came in and installed a series of French drains to dry up my yard. It’s the first time in years I could start to use my full backyard. They showed up when they said they would, completed the job they said they would and cleaned up when he left. What more could you ask for? I told him a week after the job was done and said that there was an area where the grass wasn’t growing. He came in and receded and it looks great today. I highly recommend CTX excavating on your next project.See more
