“Nick and Rapid Excavating do an excellent job. They went above and beyond what I expected. I have used them several times. They have done dirt work, a gravel driveway, and recently replaced the main water line. When the last job was completed, my yard looked better than it did before. They do everything possible to save the home owner money and get the job done correctly. I had three contractors look at my problem and bid the job. Nick did the most in-depth assessment of the water line issue. The other contractors were going to jackhammer my patio and basement walls, but Nick was able to make the repair without any damage to my concrete. I highly recommend Nick and his team. I will be a lifelong customer.”
“I can't say enough good things about my experience with this company. Nik was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. I came to him with a wide range of unique and challenging projects, and he handled every single one with confidence, efficiency, and attention to detail. Nik is extremely knowledgeable, takes the time to listen, and asks thoughtful questions to ensure everything is done correctly. His professionalism and dedication to quality workmanship really set this company apart.”
