Proverbs 16:3 — “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.”
The legacy that built wilkins excavating
From a young age, Paw Paw took me along to job sites, teaching me the value of hard work and sharing the knowledge he had gained throughout his years in dirt work. The skills, confidence, and work ethic I carry today are a direct result of the time he invested in me. He helped pave the path that led me to where I am today, and for that, I am forever grateful.
It is with great pride and respect that I dedicate Wilkins Excavating in honor of my Paw Paw, Douglas Wilkins, whose legacy continues to guide every project we undertake. His lessons built more than dirt work; they helped build the man I became. I strive every day to honor the values he taught me: work hard, do the job right, treat people fairly, and trust in the Lord.

Why Choose Wilkins Excavating
Raised Around Dirt Work
Dirt work isn't just a job for Jesse. It's a way of life. Taught from an early age by his grandfather, he developed the skills, knowledge, and passion for the industry that continue to guide every project today. At Wilkins Excavating, every job is completed with pride, precision, and attention to detail.
Knows the Land
Reading the ground matters. Understanding slope, soil, and how a property sits means dirt gets moved, shaped, and graded the right way the first time.
Built to Drain Right
Proper drainage is one of the most important parts of any excavation project. Every cut, grade, and slope is carefully designed to direct water where it belongs, helping prevent erosion, standing water, and costly issues down the road.
Quality That Lasts
Quality that lasts isn't a catchphrase. It's our promise. We approach every project with a focus on durability. From the materials we use to the care we take in every grade and foundation, we ensure your results stand the test of time.
What People Say
“I can't recommend Jesse Wilkins with Wilkins Excavating enough! He handled all of the dirt work for our new home build this year, and the quality of his work speaks for itself. Jesse clearly loves what he does, and it shows. He has the knowledge, experience, and equipment to do the job the right way the first time.”
“The dirt pad and driveway turned out better than we could have imagined. If you're looking for someone who will do the job right, Jesse is your guy. Jesse and his wife are great people who genuinely care about their customers and take pride in their work.”
“Before we built our house, we asked around for recommendations. Jesse was recommended to us. He did such an outstanding job that we also had him do our house and shop pads, cleared more stumps, built up our driveway and dug our water line. Highly recommend.”
“Jesse was very helpful giving ideas on where we should put our pad for our pole barn when I was undecided. He was very knowledgeable and made sure to share important information before getting too far into the job. We are very pleased with his work and will recommend him to anyone.”
