Did a drainage project for new home that came out great. I would recommend them to anyone that needs excavation work.

Professional, detail oriented, honest, easy to work with. I highly recommend FTS. I will be hiring them again for future work.

Frank is very thorough in his communication.
Does his best to look out for the owner, general contractor and other subs at work and is easy to work with.

Frank and his crew repaired a retaining wall that was falling over. His crew did and amazing job. Really pleased with the results.

I just want to say frank is a stand up guy. His work is on spot. I would hire him again with out issues

Thank you Frank & Seth for all the work you put in at my home. French drain is keeping my basement dry!! The dry river bed is beautiful and helping guide water away from the house on the other side!

I highly recommend FtS excavation! I had a yard covered in ivy and blackberries. Frank not only removed the problem, he shaped a 2nd usable landing, knocked down 100ft+ tree safely and found more driveway and an RV pad we didn't even know we had. My wife and I are very happy with the results ☺️

Frank carved out a driveway and paths for us and it was very skillfully and beautifully done. He is not only gifted but principled and professional. We were very happy.

Frank did an excellent job on our site prep for our home addition include digging the foundation and complete site prep and drainage including running trenching for power. Highly recommend Frank and FTS-Excavation!

As the pastor of The Ridge Bible Church, I have been very pleased with the work that FTS has done on our campus. From installing a planned curtain drain, to resurfacing our parking lot, to emergency drainage mitigation inside and outside of a flooding building, they were there doing professional work as though they were personally invested in our welfare. Grateful they are there for us, and happy to strongly recommend!

Frank did our complicated drainage system which required careful workmanship cutting a trench between existing landscape and fitting machinery between gate posts with only a quarter inch to spare. He did an outstanding job. If you want experienced and skilled with the excavation equipment Frank is the best.

It was such a pleasure to work with FTS on a job no other excavation contractor would take. Frank was so considerate and communicative throughout the whole process. I will absolutely work with FTS for all future excavation.

We had an emergency and need some excavation work done. Frank fit us in to his schedule, did an amazing job and his price was very fair. We will absolutely use him again and highly recommend him!

FtS-Excavation, Frank, was awesome. We were in a nightmare situation last November & December with too much water leaking into our White-Water system. Water was flooding the pump out chamber and the pump couldn't keep up. Our entire system was dug up, by hand, and all joints were cemented and caulked. Plus there was the snow and record rainfall adding on top to this crisis. Frank dug a well point and installed a sump near the last pump chamber to draw off excess ground water. The water table was about at ground level as we are on a cut away slope and all the rainwater was settling right on the system and UV light box. Frank took care and was careful to dig and expose the line and install a line to our outer ditch, for the clear rain water to be pumped to, and not cause erosion. Problem cleared up and I am sorry to have taken 10 months to write a review! Talk about a chill guy, and honest and dedicated, he came out and worked right almost on Christmas eve and New Years. He was here, working, during the holidays. Incredible. That's how dedicated he is to see we get results, resolve the issue, safely and quickly. He even installed several tons of rock to help make a sort of French drain to help remove rain water from the septic tank chambers. If ever in a need for trenching, landscaping or pit digging, get ahold of Frank. I'll continue to trust him for all my landscape, water control needs. Thank you sir!!

FTS Excavation put in a driveway drain. Their bid was competitive and fair. The work was done on schedule, with as little disruption as possible. I would certainly call on Frank again for this type of work. They did a great job.
