Our History
Our story began in 1917, when my great-grandfather, Peter, set the foundation for a family tradition of hard work, precision, and trust in the excavation industry. Back then, Peter was a true pioneer—operating one of the very first steam shovels in New Jersey. His dedication to quality work and honest business quickly earned him a reputation that would span generations.
Peter’s legacy was carried forward by our grandfather Anthony, and later by my father—Peter and my uncle Tony—who expanded the business while staying true to the values we were built on.
Today, Daren is proud to be the fourth generation owner leading the family business. While technology and equipment have changed dramatically since the steam shovel days, our commitment to reliability, craftsmanship, and integrity remains exactly the same.
From small residential projects to large commercial site work, our team brings over a century of hands-on experience to every job. We know that when you hire us, you’re trusting more than a company—you’re trusting a name that has been moving the earth of New Jersey for over 100 years.
