About earthwork contractors in Erie

Excavation dominates the Erie list: 14 of the 16 contractors show it, with demolition (3) and land clearing (2) behind it. Beute & Bliley, Inc. leads the list on Google at 5.0 stars from 5 reviews; across all 14 rated listings the average is 4.9, and 13 sit at 4.5 or higher. 1 of the 16 cover three or more trades. That matters when a lot has to go from raw to pad-ready: a firm that clears, grades and digs keeps the job off a second mobilization, and mobilizations are where budgets slip. Prices in Erie are set per job, not off a rate card, so describe one scope to two or three of these firms and compare what comes back. Every listing is compiled from public Google Maps business data (our harvest ran July 2026), and a trade we do not show is one we found no evidence of, not one the firm turns down. Updated for 2026.

Excavation in Erie: questions

How much does excavation cost in Erie?

Excavation in Erie is quoted by the job or the machine day, not off a price list. A small residential dig commonly lands between $1,500 and $5,000; what moves it is access, how far the spoil has to travel, whether you hit rock, and what the PA permit and dig-safe process adds. Call two or three of the 16 contractors above and describe the same scope to each, or the numbers will not be comparable.

Can one contractor in Erie clear, grade and dig?

Yes, and it is usually the cheaper route because you are not paying for a second mobilization. Beute & Bliley, Inc. covers 3 of the earthwork trades on our records, the widest in Erie: excavation, demolition and hauling & materials. Use the filters above to stack the trades your job needs and see who covers all of them.

Who does land clearing in Erie?

2 of the 16 Erie listings show land clearing work: taking trees, brush and stumps off a lot so it can be dug or built on. Filter by "land clearing" above to see just those. Clearing is priced per acre and swings hard on tree cover and what happens to the debris, so ask early whether they mulch on site, burn, or haul off.

Which Erie contractors install septic systems?

1 of the Erie listing carries septic installation. That is installers, not tank pumpers: we drop the pump-and-haul outfits because a new tank, drain field or leach bed is an excavation job. Septic work is permitted and usually needs a perc test before anyone digs, so start that conversation well before you want the machine on site.

Which excavation contractor in Erie is rated highest?

Beute & Bliley, Inc. is the highest-rated earthwork contractor in our Erie list, at 5.0 stars from 5 Google reviews. Of the 16 contractors working Erie, 13 are rated 4.5 stars or higher (the list averages 4.9).
