Your Lolo Excavation Contractor
Elevated Dirt Works is a Lolo company. Our mailing address is here in Lolo. When you call about a job in Lolo, you're calling a neighbor, not an outfit that has to look you up on a map.
We're locally owned, licensed, bonded and insured, and we're on the City of Missoula's list of excavation contractors with current business licenses. We work for homeowners taking on a single project and for builders who need a sub that shows up when the schedule says it will.
Every job starts with a free on-site estimate. We walk the property with you, look at access, where the spoils will go and what might be buried, and give you a straight answer on what the work involves. If it's a job we're not the right fit for, we'll say so.
Excavation Projects We Do in Lolo
Lolo has a bit of everything, from older homes on established lots to new construction on open ground south of Missoula. That mix keeps our work varied. One week it's a basement dig for a new house. The next it's a failed drain field, or a driveway that needs to stop washing out every spring. Our compact excavators and tracked skid steer fit into backyards and tight lots where bigger machines can't go, which matters for additions and infill work. We also dig test pits before septic design, so you know what the ground can handle before anything gets drawn up.
- Foundation excavation for new homes, garages and additions, with backfill once the walls are up
- Septic systems for new builds and replacements, starting with test pits
- Water and sewer lines from the main or the well to the house
- Egress windows for basement bedrooms: we handle the digging and coordinate with your window installer
- Site prep and grading so water drains away from the house, not toward it
Based in Lolo
Lolo sits where US-93 meets US-12, which puts us close to both Missoula and the Bitterroot Valley. Whether the job is north in town or south toward Florence and the rest of Ravalli County, we're already on the right road. That location is why our service area runs the way it does.
Being based here also means we know what Lolo homeowners run into: the county permit for a septic system, the Montana811 call before anyone digs, and planning around frost and snow in the colder months. Winter work depends on conditions and access, so call and we'll tell you what's realistic. We answer the phone Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
