"Rented the excavator so I could redo the ditch along my driveway. It was dropped off on time with a full tank of fuel. Guy that dropped it off answered the questions I had and said to call anytime if I had issues. Exactly what I wanted to hear. Will rent from him again."

"Highly recommend Shaw Excavation and Earthwork! We hired Shaw Excavation to do site prep, grading and sloping for a large 40ft x 20ft garage. Shane is very professional and extremely knowledgeable and all for very reasonable rate. We are so pleased and satisfied with our entire experience from start to finish with Shaw Excavation. Job well done!"
