The man who runs the machine.
Elite Excavating LLC is George's company, based in Capac, Michigan, working across St. Clair, Lapeer and Macomb counties.
Locally owned, locally run
Elite Excavating is based in Capac and most weeks the equipment does not leave the surrounding counties. That is deliberate. Staying close means the machine gets to your job when it was promised, and that the person who quoted the work is the person doing it.
George runs the equipment himself. Customers say the same things about it in their reviews: he turns up, he explains what he is going to do, and the price he gives is the price that holds.

Same order, every job.
Walk it together
Nothing is priced over the phone that should be looked at. The walk-through is free and it is where the plan gets made.
A real number
You get a price for the job in front of you, with what is and is not included said out loud.
The work
Equipment on site, job run start to finish, and you are told if anything in the ground changes the plan.
Finished, not abandoned
Graded, cleaned up, debris gone. The site gets left in a state you would be happy to show someone.
What customers wrote.
Every review on the Google profile is five stars. These are some of them, word for word.
We asked for an addition to the parking area on the property. George listened to our needs, worked efficiently, and delivered exactly what we asked for on time, and for a very reasonable price. He even took care of damages on the existing drive that were not included in the quote. Three days, start to finish.
George was amazing to deal with. We were dealt with a huge problem when hiring someone to build a pool. He was very professional and told us step by step what he was going to do to fix the problem. He went over and above to make things right. We will definitely use Elite Excavating LLC again for any future needs.
Hired Elite Excavating to move 400 yards of dirt and grade a backyard area after new construction. George was professional, timely and very easy to work with. The finished product is exactly what I was looking for and all the work was done on budget.
We had these guys resurface our storage lot with asphalt millings. They did a great job! Very impressed with their work, and very polite communication throughout the process.
Highly recommend, George is extremely skilled at what he does and definitely exceeded our hopes and expectations. Got the job done very quick considering all that needed to be accomplished, as well as fitting through the very tight space we gave him to work on with his excavator like a pro!
This is the guy to call! Extremely punctual, works so hard, and the job is perfect. Very kind and respectful. It's such a bonus to find a young man with such a work ethic.
