The Story

From the Carolinas
to the Cascades.

Beaver Excavation got its start in South Carolina, where we ran excavation jobs for builders, developers and homeowners for five years. We learned the trade the only way it can really be learned: by running the controls, day in and day out, on every kind of site you can think of.

In early 2026 we packed up the iron and moved to Damascus, Oregon to start fresh in the Pacific Northwest. The lots are different, the soil is different, and the trees are a whole lot bigger. The job is the same. Move the dirt, hit the grade, leave the site ready for the next trade.

We are bringing builder-friendly excavation back to a corner of the metro that needs it: real follow through, fair pricing, and an owner who actually shows up to the job.

How We Run

Four rules
we do not bend.

01

Show Up Early

Our day starts at 7am on site. If we said we will be there Tuesday morning, we are unloading by Tuesday morning.

02

Talk Like Adults

Plain answers about scope, price and timing. No salesy fluff, no surprise charges, no dodging the hard questions.

03

Leave It Clean

When we hand the site off, the next trade does not have to fix our mess. The grade is dialed and the haul off is done.

04

Stand Behind It

If something is not right when the inspector or the GC looks at it, we come back and make it right. That is the deal.

The Iron

Right size
for the job.

We run a mix of mini and mid-frame excavators, dump trucks and skid steer attachments. Tight backyard dig out or a full lot clear, we bring the right iron and the right operator.

  • Mini Excavators

    Mustang & Kubota class, ideal for tight residential lots, foundations and utility work.

  • Mid-Frame Excavators

    CAT and Case class for serious dig outs, demolition and heavy site work.

  • Dump Trucks & Trailers

    Our own haul fleet so the dirt, rock and debris leaves with us.

  • Skid Steer & Attachments

    Grading, brush cutting and stump grinding for full site clean ups.
