Rock Solid Excavation is a Michigan excavation and site-work company based in Fenton. We move dirt, build hardscape, set retaining and sea walls, shape shorelines, install and repair septic systems, run underground utilities, clear and drain land, haul equipment, plow commercial lots in winter, and take structures down when it's time for something new. If it's dirt, stone, or site prep, it's the kind of work we do every day.
Built for Michigan
The whole state lives on the same cycle: freeze, thaw, repeat. It's the thing that quietly wrecks driveways that weren't based right, walls that weren't drained, and grades that pushed water the wrong way. We build for that reality from the first cut — the right base, real drainage, and materials chosen to take our winters, heavy spring rains, and hot summers. The goal isn't a job that looks good on day one. It's a job that still looks dialed-in years later.
Who you're working with
When you call Rock Solid, you're dealing with John — the owner. He's the one who comes out to walk your site, talks through what it actually needs, and puts together a written estimate. No call-center runaround, no bait-and-switch. Just a straight read on the work and a fair number to do it right.
How we work
- Walk the site. John comes out, looks at access, soil, slope, drainage, and scope.
- Scope it honestly. You get a written estimate — and a straight answer on what the site really calls for.
- Do it once, do it right. The base, the drainage, the structure — we don't cut the corners that come back to bite you.
- Leave it clean. Graded, hauled, and finished so it looks like we were never there.
Residential and commercial
We work for homeowners reshaping a yard or fixing a driveway that never drained right, and for businesses and builders who need pads poured, lots plowed, utilities trenched, or a site cleared and graded for what's next. Different jobs, same standard.
