Company History

The company began as a two-person outfit focused on weekend excavation projects for lakeshore cottages. Growth came from steady referrals and repeat work on utility upgrades for older homes. Over time, equipment was expanded to handle larger demolition contracts and winter excavations that respect frost lines in Minnesota’s climate.

Projects range from modest trenching jobs to multi-day demolition and site restoration. The company understands local soils, seasonal wetness, and the logistics of working near docks and shorelines.

Leadership

Owner and founder Mark Jensen brings more than 20 years of hands-on construction and excavation experience. Mark grew up in the area and keeps active ties to local trade groups and the Lindstrom business community. Leadership emphasizes clear estimates, local permitting knowledge, and working with town inspectors.

The team often participates in community cleanups and small infrastructure projects that help maintain access to public boat launches and trails.
