"Intellegent 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 system 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."

Preparing for Your Demolition Project
Before demolition begins, we'll make sure the site is ready for the work ahead. A Hazardous Materials Clearance Report is required before we start, helping ensure materials such as asbestos are identified and handled appropriately.
We’ll also review site access, surrounding structures, utilities and the scope of the demolition so the work can be planned safely and efficiently.
Every property is different. We’ll walk through the project with you beforehand so you know what needs to be completed before demolition begins and what to expect once work is underway.
