Dana Daughters Excavating Co. LLC

No! Terrible shotty work. Created damage to my property. Pulled huge trucks on to my driveway and cracked it. Tore out and trashed my central air unit to dig in that area. Left entire yard all dug up and not smoothed out. Said it needs to be like that for 2 months before he could come back to smooth it out. Asked for payment in full before job was done. Never supervised his 2 man crew. Very unprofessional. When I called him to talk about my cracked driveway from the concrete truck pulling up on it, he yelled at me and said he gave them permission to do that because I was going to replace the whole driveway anyway. When i said that is not true, he told me he took pictures of the driveway before and after because he deals with this all the time and he didn't have time to discuss this because he needed to pack for a cruise he was leaving for tomorrow and he hung up on me. I have pictures of my driveway too but he wasn't even present when the truck arrived.

The owner Dana was supposed to be a family friend of my father-in-law. He came to our house and said he would do our septic and widen our pond for a set price. We gave him a little over halfway up front. He did not get to the job until over 2 months later, we had to constantly ask him to start the job. While doing the job he came and left the job site whenever and never told us what he was doing. He would leave for hours, days, with no notice. He had to finish the job by hooking up our system with an electrician who did not come until 2 weeks after the job was finished. He never flattened out the dirt around the septic tank and it is all uneven. He had promised us when we originally gave him the first half of the money that he was WIDENING our pond. He refuses to do it now and is asking for the second half of the money we owe him, without finishing what he promised. My husband has been away on active duty orders on and off these last few months and he has been taking advantage of that. My husband came home from orders on Sunday and Dana showed up at our house unannounced MONDAY MORNING and asked for the second half of the money. I work from home so. I wrote out a check and my husband came to grab it from my desk and when he went back outside dana left without telling us! He then proceeded to send us a picture of a claim of lien in the text the following night. This man is a liar, he takes advantage and is not respectful towards the military, and is extremely unprofessional. I would never recommend his service to anyone I know. If you want to avoid a nightmare, do not hire him!

We highly recommend Dana Daughters Excavating! We had an emergency and Dana was at our house within the hour to evaluate and back first thing the next morning to dig up our sewer and find the problem. They took care of everything, leaving us stress free. Very professional, fair prices, and timely! 5+ stars!!

Fast service for an emergency situation. When it was determined that we didn't need as much work as originally quoted, they let us know and adjusted the price accordingly.

Reliable, trustworthy, do what they say they'll do and in a timely fashion.

I have used Dana in six different projects, and all of them have gone above and beyond. They work with our schedule. I will use them again.
