108 Excavating

What 108 Excavating does

108 Excavating is a privately held, locally owned and operated excavation and earthwork contractor headquartered in Flagstaff, Arizona, serving commercial and residential customers across Northern Arizona. Founded in 2015 and operating with a staff of 11-50, the firm delivers a broad service portfolio spanning mass grading, site grading, fine and rough grading, foundation preparation, dry and wet utility installation, stormwater and storm retention systems, septic systems, retaining walls, demolition, land clearing, land development, material hauling, paver installation, and snow removal. Differentiated capabilities include onsite aggregate crushing and recycling, which allows material to be processed directly at the job site.

The business operates a project-based professional services model, bidding work through direct estimate requests submitted via its website and converting engagements with commercial developers, contractors, and other construction project owners. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Core technology is centered on heavy earthmoving equipment and onsite crushing/screening machinery rather than software or proprietary systems. There is no AI/ML product layer, no app, no API, and no third-party technology integrations described.

From a commercial standpoint, the company relies on a modest marketing footprint: a website with service pages, a project photo gallery, and an online estimate form serve as the primary lead-generation channel, supplemented by earned-media exposure via a Titan Magazine feature. The company has no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, institutional investors, M&A activity, patents, certifications, partnerships, or named customer logos. All observable strategic activity to date consists of the initial founding and the staged launch of specialty service lines (onsite crushing, mass grading, stormwater systems) alongside ongoing field hiring.

Others

• Caterpillar Inc. World's largest manufacturer of construction equipment, including the excavators, dozers, and crushing/screening machinery used in earthworks. Comparable as the dominant equipment supplier to excavation contractors like 108 Excavating, but does not perform contracting services itself.

Regional players

• Haydon Companies: Arizona-headquartered general contractor and heavy civil builder with significant earthwork and site preparation work across the state. Comparable because it competes for the same commercial and infrastructure site-prep opportunities in Arizona, though with a larger headcount and broader scope.
• Pulice Construction: Arizona-based heavy civil contractor with earthwork, grading, drainage, and utility installation capabilities. Comparable in service mix (mass grading, utilities, site prep) and regional competition for Southwest commercial and infrastructure projects.
• Achen-Gardner Construction: Arizona-based heavy civil contractor specializing in utilities, earthwork, and site development for municipal and commercial clients. Comparable in that it performs wet/dry utility installation, grading, and stormwater work in the same regional market.

Broad incumbents

• Vulcan Materials Company: Largest U.S. producer of construction aggregates with vertically integrated site preparation and material supply capabilities. Comparable on the aggregates side (crushed stone, recycled material supply) that competes with 108 Excavating's onsite crushing/recycling offering, though at national scale.
• Martin Marietta Materials: Major U.S. aggregates supplier with significant Southwest operations, supplying crushed stone, sand, and recycled materials to construction contractors. Comparable because its aggregates business overlaps with 108 Excavating's onsite crushing/recycling revenue stream, though it does not perform site preparation directly.
• Granite Construction: Large publicly traded heavy civil and site preparation contractor with extensive earthworks, grading, and utility installation capabilities across the U.S. Comparable because it competes in the same excavation/site prep space, though at a vastly larger scale and broader geographic footprint.
• Kiewit Corporation: One of the largest North American heavy civil and infrastructure contractors, performing earthworks, grading, utilities, and demolition across commercial and public projects. Comparable in core service offering (mass excavation, utility installation, site prep) but operates at a national, multi-billion-dollar scale.
