I cannot say enough good things about James at Desert Dirt Rat. From start to finish, he was…read moreprofessional, hardworking, and genuinely committed to doing quality work. He consistently went above and beyond what was expected. One thing that really stood out to me was that after he finished the job, he saw me struggling to wash all seven of my horses by myself and came over to help without being asked. That kind of kindness and work ethic is hard to find and means a lot to any animal parent! You can tell James takes pride in his work and has a passion for doing things right. He was easy to work with, communicated well, and treated the project as if it were his own. If you're looking for an honest, dependable excavation company that delivers excellent results, I highly recommend Desert Dirt Rat. James and Andrew are great people to have on your project.

They respond quickly, let you know when they'll be there, let you know if something comes up, and keep you posted on progress. I cannot begin to tell you how rare that is. We worked with them on regrading a portion of our yard and building a retaining wall with a built-in planted. Esteban was able to come over for an estimate within a few days, took measurements and pictures, and then got back to me with a design idea that he drew along with the details of what stones would be used. The quote was on par with other quotes we had received. They got us on the schedule within a couple of days and they finished the project as well as a complete yard clean-up within a week. That's bananas if you didn't realize. We'll be getting regular service from them from here on and have a few more projects lined up.

The first crew that came for my first job were EXCELLENT, communicated with me a did a great job! The only communication I got from second very young crew was to come back and ask for a different check as he forgot to add $10 to the already exorbitant bill. Thanks Scott for your communication.

My wife and I recently moved to a multi-acre property in rural Tucson. It was clear from lots of…read moreerosion that we needed someone to come in and do some major excavation work and resurface our driveway. Advanced Excavating was highly praised and recommended by locals, so we gave them a call. George Bartholomew came by to walk the property and provide advise and a quote. This man knows his stuff!! It was astounding to us that he could "see" things beyond imagination that could be done to control potential flooding, and his proposal was extremely reasonable. We gave him the go-ahead on the spot. Soon thereafter, the work began. Lane, Derrick and the crew worked like magicians to transform our land into a thing of beauty in no time at all. Truly amazing. We were literally overwhelmed by the quality of the work George and company did for us. The attention to detail and extra effort they applied really blew us away! And they were such a pleasure to work with. Our huge driveway and parking area now look fabulous!! Phenomenal bang-for-the-buck and HIGHLY recommended.

I did not hire this company, and after my experience, I never would…read more One of their employees, while operating a company vehicle (a Ford F-350), struck my car on a private one-way road near a school. The impact was to the rear driver-side panel of my vehicle -- a clear indicator of fault -- and resulted in over $5,000 in damage. Their vehicle had only a minor fender scratch. Instead of accepting responsibility, the company misrepresented the situation to their insurance provider and refused to take accountability. Their insurer subsequently denied my claim -- not because the facts support them, but because the company was unwilling to stand behind its actions. In my view, this shows a serious lack of integrity and professionalism. If this is how they handle public incidents, I would be very concerned about how they conduct business. I urge others to consider this when choosing a contractor. Accountability matters.
