Our clients wanted a large, private retreat in their backyard—so we delivered 250 linear feet of custom-built hemlock fencing, an oversized gate for easy mower access, lastly we completely regraded/topsoiled and reseeded the whole yard!
Proudly serving Tompkins County, NY and surrounding areas.

Can you believe that! We have only had this bucket for a month or so, but already it has proven to be extremely versatile. Next question is how will it hold up? @cmpattachments #hydrabucket #skidsteerattachments #excavationlife #259d3

Can’t stop us 💪! Might have put us behind schedule by a day or two on this paver project, but was totally worth it! 😂 #stumped #nevergiveup #upstateny #excavation #tompkinscounty #ithacany #ithaca #landscaping @milton_cat @vermeerindustrial
Fixing a failed drain, we had to temporarily retain back the water while installing a new solid drain run and then.. the rest is history.. #excavation #ithacany #upstateny #tompkinscounty #ithaca #landscaping
Loving how this natural-faced bluestone retaining wall turned out! Solid structure, timeless look. Fingers crossed we get to come back and add the cap — that would really finish it off beautifully.

Check out a time-lapse from this morning of the bluestone retaining wall blocks we started laying! The largest block weighs aprox 1,400 lbs. Combined we ordered a total of 20tons of retaining wall stone, that’s 40,000lbs for this project 💥😅 #retainingwall #excavation #cayugaheights #upstateny #ithacany #tompkinscounty #ithaca #caterpillar #hardscaping #landscaping

These homeowners wanted a landscape that lives up to their view — and you know who they called.
The original retaining wall was on its way out, but rather than a full replacement, we gave it a clean cut and smart update. We also reimagined the surrounding landscaping to bring everything together beautifully. 🌿✨
