Another mulching job in the books! 🌲
Another example of our machinery accomplishing in one day what 5 years of labor couldn't.
This customer had approximately 3 acres of heavily overgrown pine trees, with dead limbs extending through the lower 10' of the trees. The excessive growth was progressively restricting sunlight and airflow, preventing the area from developing into a healthier, more open wooded space.
The mulcher was able to remove the overwhelming majority of the unwanted growth while leaving the dead limbs slightly stubbed from the trunk rather than risking damage to the trees themselves. Those remaining stubs closer to the tree as seen fit, and we can grab the high ones with our pole saw.
Pictures really don't do this transformation justice! 

Multiple stumps that were 3'+ at one location called for the proper machine.  The 19k LB 85D was the correct machine for this job, across a black top driveway and in town. It was an absolute pleasure working with this set of customers.

After we pulled stumps the area was leveled out and a load of black dirt spread, harley raked, and finally seeded down. Another job down and another happy customer.

The customer reached out to see if we had the right equipment to finish it properly — and we had alot of options. We brought in our skid steer, ripped and loosened the compacted areas, and then finished everything smooth with a Harley rake. The customer already had a tractor/loader on site for final rock cleanup and chose to handle that portion themselves, helping keep costs down while still getting a clean finished product. A few rocks windrowed to pick, and it'll be ready to seed down! Win-win for everyone involved. While we were on site, we also tilled up a food plot for the customer to get it ready for planting.

As you can see, it’s been a wild spring here. We’ve been far too busy to keep up with showing our work, but finally have a moment to breathe between jobs with a touch of rain moving through.

Here’s a small sample of some of the work completed since the thaw — with many jobs never making it to the camera roll, either from being pressed for time or because pictures just don’t fully show the amount of work involved.

Culverts, driveways, drainage ditches, mowing operations, trail clean up, and estimates galore have kept our heads on a swivel and time management running full tilt so far this season.

We appreciate everyone keeping us busy and trusting ERE Excavation with your projects. Our business would be nothing without our loyal customers and supporters.
Seriously — thank you to all of our customers, supporters, friends, family, and community. The overwhelming volume of calls this year has truly been a blessing. We chalk it up to years of commitment, dedication to quality work, and most importantly the continued support from the people around us who believe in what we do.
We’re grateful for every opportunity and look forward to continuing to serve Central Wisconsin and beyond.

Now’s the time.
Projects are booking up fast, and the sooner you get your estimate, the sooner your spot is locked in.
Don’t As soon as the season kicked off, we pulled off scheduled work to handle an urgent culvert replacement.
The existing 18” culvert—installed by another contractor—was undersized and causing major washouts. We worked with the County to upsize it to a proven 30” solution to protect the property long-term.
From customer approval to start time was under 48 hours—even with permitting involved. Once permits were finalized, we had everything on-site and started in less than 24 hours.
When it’s urgent, we move.wait until you’re pushed to the back of the schedule—get ahead of it and get it done right.

This Athens area Culvert washed out leaving the customer with only half the driveway to work with and an emergency on their hands. We replaced it in quick order!

All one Milan job, ½ acre of full tilling to flatten out a very rough lawn, and ¼ acre of root pulling to create a lawn where awful rough areas existed from stumps and roots prior, bringing in black dirt to top dress and Harley raking to fully smooth out and fluff up for seeding. 

We may not post every job — but we take pride in every one.
From thick brush to full property reclamation, we bring the right equipment and the experience to get it done right the first time.
Here’s a look at some of the work we’ve been knocking out.
Spring scheduling is underway. Let’s get your project on the books.
 

Both sides of a 1,500’ ditchline loaded with popple slashing. Mowed, mulched, saw cut—whatever it took to get the job done and finished exactly how the customer wanted. Now this field has: 

🌞 More sunlight hitting the crops 

🌲 No more rows getting eaten by encroaching trees 

💧 Better drainage and water movement 

💰 Healthier crops = more money back in the farmer’s pocket 

Another job done right by ERE Excavation.
