Dale E Percy Inc

What Dale E Percy Inc does

Dale E. Percy, Inc. is a third-generation, family-owned excavation and aggregate company headquartered at 269 Weeks Hill Road in Stowe, Vermont. Founded by Dale E. Percy in 1944 with a single tractor, the company has operated continuously for over eighty years and is currently led by Chip Percy as President/Owner with his children Meghan and Matt Percy running daily operations. The company serves individual homeowners, commercial customers, contractors, and municipal clients across north-central and northern Vermont, with delivery available in Stowe, Morrisville, Waterbury, and Hyde Park.

The company's core offering spans two related categories: construction and excavation services, and aggregate and soil products. Services include land development, road and driveway construction, foundation excavation, septic and sewer system installation, drainage solutions, pond construction, snow plowing, and sanding. The product catalog comprises roughly eighteen aggregate SKUs (gravel types, crushed stone, ledge, pea stone, Winooski stone, washed round, manufactured sand, topsoil, mortar sand, rip-rap, mound sand, clay, and sandfill) sold by the cubic yard. The underlying technology is conventional heavy civil equipment, augmented by two owned gravel pits, one stone quarry, and one mobile crushing plant, which together provide vertical integration over the materials supply chain. The fleet includes 14 dump trucks operating daily.

The business model is direct-to-customer and transaction-based, with no third-party distribution. Customers either pick up aggregate at the Stowe yard without appointment or schedule phone-based delivery within the four-town service area. Pricing is set per cubic yard with a 6% Vermont sales tax added, and quotes are provided on request. The customer mix spans residential (driveways, foundations, septic systems), commercial (subdivisions, road building), and municipal/institutional work (Town of Stowe projects, Norwich University, Stowe Mountain Resort and Spruce Peak, Kingdom Community Wind Farm). Notable project work has included the Stowe Mountain Resort and Spruce Peak expansions and energy infrastructure such as the Kingdom Community Wind Farm level spreader relocation. Marketing is low-digital and relies primarily on a basic informational website, local SEO, and word-of-mouth referral driven by long employee tenures and established community presence.

Broad incumbents

• Callanan Industries: Upstate New York producer of crushed stone, asphalt, and concrete products with associated construction services. Comparable vertically integrated aggregate-to-construction model serving the broader Northeast market.
• Peckham Industries: Large Northeast family-controlled producer of asphalt, aggregates, and construction services with operations across multiple states. Comparable in aggregate production and road construction services, but significantly larger and geographically broader.
• The Lane Construction Corporation: Heavy civil contractor with aggregate production capabilities serving the Northeast. Overlaps with Percy on road construction, excavation, and aggregate supply, but operates as a much larger national infrastructure firm.

• E.T. & L. Corp. Family-owned site development and excavation company based in Stow, Massachusetts with a similar mix of excavation services, aggregate products, and municipal/residential work. Closely comparable in scale, ownership structure, and vertical integration of construction services.
