“Recently White Sulphur Springs Ranch hired McGarr Excavation for a complex infrastructure job supplying water to the ranch house and electricity and water to the bath house and future pool.  The job was complex as it involved installing more than 25 individual water lines and electrical conduits in the ranch house and bath house in precise locations.  Many of the water lines had to be installed at different depths to ensure adequate cooling of water coming from our hot water well.  I was on the job site virtually everyday during construction and found them to be very professional and knowledgeable in every aspect of their work.  The work was completed on time as promised and they were even kind enough to donate some of their work to our non-profit.  McGarr Excavation is a great local business that cares about their community!”
Tim Buckhout, MVSC Volunteer

For 11 years McGarr has been the only company that I will use, whether it’s site preparation, septics, underground, or road construction. I have always found exceptional value and quality in all their work. The McGarr’s knowledge, experience, and team based approach have been a huge asset to my company.

Brian Hayes, Capstone Services Group

We have been partnering with McGarr Excavation on all of our projects since 2016.  The team has been a pleasure to work with at every turn.  From steep slope lots in Donner Lake, to large complex custom home excavations in Grey’s Crossing and Grizzly Ranch.  From road building to home sites in the Sierra Valley and Sierra City, to exemplary utility and septic installs. They’ve tackled them all with ease.  They are always able to work within our schedules, and consistently exceed our timeline expectations.  Budgeting jobs with Tyler has always been fair and consistent, and negotiations easy.  If you are looking for a seamless excavation for your custom home, commercial project, or utility work, Mcgarr Excavation will not disappoint! They are great people, with positive attitudes, that work hard to get the job done.
