About Drake's Excavating
A locally owned excavating contractor built on hard work, honest pricing, and driveways that last.
Hard work, done right
Drake's Excavating LLC started with one machine and a commitment to treating every customer's property like our own. Today, we serve homeowners, farmers, and businesses across Southeast Michigan with a full fleet of modern excavation equipment.
We specialize in gravel and asphalt milling driveway installation, final grading, and soil conditioning. Every gravel and asphalt milling driveway is vibratory rolled and compacted for a solid, long-lasting finish. Whether it's a short residential driveway or a long farm lane, we bring the same attention to base preparation, drainage, and compaction.
