St. George, UT
"Paul and his team were fantastic. They hit caliche about 3 feet down and handled it without missing a beat. Finished our foundation dig in 2 days, right on schedule. Communication was excellent—daily updates via text. Highly recommend for anyone building in St. George."
Santa Clara, UT
"We were nervous about the volcanic rock near Snow Canyon, but Bunker Excavation had the right equipment. The rock hammer made quick work of it. Paul's estimate was accurate, no surprise charges. Our basement is now our favorite room in the house!"
Washington, UT
"After monsoon flooding in our backyard for two years, we called Paul. He re-graded the lot with laser precision—water now flows away from the house exactly like it should. Professional, punctual, and fairly priced. Problem solved."
Ivins, UT
"Needed water and electric lines run to our new workshop—about 200 feet of trenching through rocky soil. Paul handled the Blue Stakes coordination, got permits, and finished in one day. Clean work, fair price. Will use again."
Hurricane, UT
"We've used Bunker Excavation on three subdivisions now. They understand the desert terrain, show up when they say they will, and their pricing is competitive. Paul's team is our go-to for all site prep in Washington County."
