What we do
Excavation services for country properties
Most of our work is on acreage and rural homesites along the I-70 corridor east of Denver — the kind of places where a driveway is a quarter-mile long, water drains wherever it wants, and the shop pad has to be right the first time. Pick a service to see how we approach it.
Grading & Building Pads
Level, compacted pads for shops, barns, and homes, plus finish grading that moves water the right direction.
Learn moreGravel Driveways
New gravel driveway installs and repairs — crowned, compacted, and built on a real base so they hold up.

Swales, French drains, and regrading that move water away from your house, driveway, and outbuildings.

Learn moreWhy Jones EarthWorks
One operator. One machine. No hand-offs.
Jones EarthWorks is a solo operation, and that's deliberate. When you call, you talk to Wade. When the estimate happens, Wade walks your property himself — because he doesn't trust anybody's measurements but the ones he takes standing on the ground. And when the work starts, the same person is in the seat of the Bobcat E42 mini excavator, which means the plan you agreed on is the work that actually gets done.
That setup matters out here. Eastern Colorado soil goes from sand to gumbo clay in the same field, drainage problems hide until the first big rain, and a pad that's off by two inches shows up when the building crew arrives. Having the owner on site — the person whose name is on the truck and whose reputation rides on every job — is how those problems get caught early instead of billed to you later.
- Owner on every job site — the estimate, the digging, and the walkthrough, all from Wade.
- Fully insured — Jones EarthWorks LLC carries liability and equipment coverage through Selective Insurance.
- Right-sized equipment — the Bobcat E42 handles tight residential sites and acreage work without tearing up your place.
- Straight pricing — written estimates from an in-person site walk, never a guess over the phone.

Site walk & written estimate
Wade comes out, walks the site with you, takes his own measurements, and puts together a written estimate based on what's actually there.
The work gets done
On the scheduled day, Wade runs the job himself. When it's finished, you walk it together before it's called done.
Word of mouth
