Testimonials

On 7/11/2026 Liz Bailey had this to say:
Tony did an outstanding job widening our driveway, adding stone along both sides, creating a drainage path, leveling the ground, and even planting our wildflower seeds and covering them with straw. He truly went above and beyond. He was professional, knowledgeable, easy to work with, and took great pride in his work. He knew exactly what needed to be done, and the finished project exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Clifton Excavating. We couldn't be happier with the results!

On 5/2/2026 Thomas Hanyok had this to say:
Tony was able to complete two jobs in two days. Our driveway needed to be upgraded with a gentler slope and better drainage, and our pond needed a new higher drain pipe. He was easy and flexible to work with. You get what you pay for and Tony provided excellent work, timely work schedule, flexibility with changes as needed, and experienced knowledge for a reasonable price.

Recently moved to the area and really needed a dependable excavating company to do septic and fix my driveway. Tony was great, he was well organized, on time, and respectful. I can honestly say that I had called several people in the area with little to no response but Tony was professional and helpful from day one. I highly recommend Tony for any kind of services.

On 2/21/2026 Mae Wisor had this to say:
Tony did a great prepping our shop space and the land around our home. We even had him come back for additional grade work after the big trucks left their mark. He actually showed up and completed the job. That’s hard to find!!
