Excavation & site work, done right the first time.
Solid Rock Excavating is an owner-operated crew that digs, grades, and hauls for homeowners and builders across Northern Kentucky. Our own iron, our own people, and a job site left clean.
Dirt, rock, and site work — start to finish.
From the first cut to final grade, we handle the heavy ground work that gets a project off the ground. One crew, one number, no runaround.
Site Preparation & Land Clearing
Clearing, stripping, and prepping raw or built lots so your project starts on solid ground.
Grading & Drainage
Rough and finish grading, building pads, slopes, and positive drainage that sheds water the right way.
Foundation & Basement Excavation
Precise digging for new homes, additions, and structures — to spec, on grade, ready for the footer.
Septic System Installation
Site work and installation for residential septic systems, tanks, and leach fields.
Utility & Drainage Lines
Water, sewer, and storm trenching, culverts, and French drains — dug clean and backfilled right.

Light structure demolition, tear-out, and full debris haul-off to leave the site clean.

Tri-axle hauling of dirt, stone, gravel, and debris — material in or spoils out, on schedule.

What our customers say.
“Mike and his crew do a great job and very easy to work with — they are by far the best in the business!”
“My neighborhood is currently building new homes on a pretty busy street. Solid Rock Excavating stands out amongst all of the construction companies. Unlike everyone else, they park their vehicles at a distance from the site as to not further jam the road. I was blown away when I saw them blowing the street clear of debris after they had loaded their machinery onto their vehicle. They really treat our neighborhood with care, which is so refreshing to see. You don't find many businesses like this these days — very impressive!”
