What Our Customers Say

★★★★★

"Dan is the only one to call for earth moving, driveway work and concrete prep! We've enjoyed working with him on four separate projects so far, and have been delighted with his work every time. Dan gets the job done and has very skilled helpers to assist him. He shows up when he says he will, and offers expert advice above and beyond the scope of the job. His prices are more than fair, and we would highly recommend Gilmore Excavation for your earth-moving needs!"

"We needed an area leveled to park our RV at our daughter's home in Eugene. Dan was amazing!! He communicated effectively, offered great suggestions and provided excellent service. The finished product was amazing! It was really easy to work with him and his prices were very competitive. Highly recommend!! Five stars!!!"

"I can't find enough superlatives to describe the job that Dan Gilmore and his assistant did for us. We decided to put a concrete patio in our backyard as well as stripping our front yard of a weedy lawn for a low-maintenance alternative. Dan spent significant time up front offering many suggestions based upon his years of experience. He leveled the backyard, brought in gravel for the concrete base, and surrounded the area with decorative boulders. In the front, all grass was stripped and mulch carefully spread. Very conscientious, communicative, reasonably-priced, and detail-oriented!"
