Promise after broken promise of starting the job week after week. Excuses of forgetting and then loosing our email with the scope of work to be completed. Gave him so many chances and in the end still screwed the project over and has never shown up. Wasted everyones time. Would never recommend Troy.

T-Rex Excavation is efficient, professional and very skilled at what they do! They have worked with us in executing some great digs for our pools, and it has always been a very successful partnership when teamed up with this capable company!

T Rex excavation did a tremendous and impressive job for my father, its been a long journey to get to actual construction and Troy and son team did an amazing job for us, a joy to watch a great operator on a big machine do magic!, this project has been difficult through the processes of city permitting and demolishion....and a small job in Its scope just removing 2 small out buildings in a residential lot. Troy made time and got the job done, seamlessly, ahead of schedule and on point affordable not inflated pricing in urgency. I wholeheartedly recommend T-Rex.

Amazing job and team! Troy and his team did a large project for me way under budget. His team of loggers under supervision of Terry, and Environmental under the supervision of Bill was nothing less than professional and efficient every step of the way. What went above and beyond was their level of courtesy and taking the time to explain things to myself, my team, and even guests touring the site. I would highly recommend this company.

T-Rex did a mobile home demolition for us this September. Troy and his crew were prompt, skilled, and efficient, and were very easy to work with. They did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend them.
