What Our Clients Say About Us

Intelligent consultation, a real eye for design, quick work(no wasting time) and evidently lots of experience on his machine. The finished product exceeded expectations every time. From septic systems to a quickly installed beautiful rock wall. I got to work with Herman on a number of projects and I hope this continues. He went way above and beyond, start to finish, and he earned my trust. Will go with Kerkhoff Excavating for every earth work/septic need I have.

Micah Butler

“Herman from Kerkhoff Excavating has completed 2 projects for me recently. I can't emphasize enough what a great experience it has been to deal with this company. Herman went above and beyond what was expected. He helped out with last minute, much needed supplies, contacted other contractors to come and help out on short notice and completed the work in record time and within budget. After 30 years in business as a consultant, contractor and planner, I can say, this company really cares. Highly recommended!”

“I used Kerkhoff Excavating on a new home project in Langley. All I can say is Herman is a straight shooter. The way I see it is company's are built on trust and integrity and Herman possesses both. Not only are his prices reasonable, but he is more than willing to go above and beyond. He is very resourceful and knows his way around the machine. I would highly recommend Kerkhoff Excavating for their services...”

We had Herman do the excavation for our foundation, he installed perimeter drains, and our drainage rock pit. As well as site grading and a septic installation in an awkward, tight location. Herman and my partner Matt worked together on all the projects. Matt would say Herman is hard working, punctual, stayed on budget, that he adapted well to changing plans and very detailed oriented. Herman used new equipment that assisted in very accurate installation. He also has a good sense of visual esthetic during site grading. Thank you Herman!
