Client Testimonials

Trusted By Builders & Homeowners

 John and his crew from North Star Services took the time to find the best solution for installing our foundation drain and did not just go with what was the fastest and easiest for them to do. In addition they provided the expert advice I needed to select the right pump and hardware needed. For that reason I would highly recommend them if your looking for a quality job done right the first time and great service!   
 I used North Star Services and appreciate their dependability, their depth of knowledge, and most of all, fair pricing for their work performed. The fact that North Star Excavating is a local company makes them more appealing and easy to work with. They arrived on time and started on our home project and quickly noticed that we could save time and money by doing some site clearing differently. Our dream home is now built and we moved in 3 weeks ahead of schedule! A+ service! Thank you North Star Excavating for everything!   
Our septic system failed its Title IV inspection.  North Star Se\ervices, Inc. came to the rescue and installed a  new septic system keeping the sale of our home on track! We want to thank you guys, for a great job well done. A pleasure working with you!
