Excavating Contractors in Plover, WI
JR’s DirtWorks
Excavation is more than moving dirt. It is the foundation of every successful construction project, shaping everything that comes after. At JR’s DirtWorks, we take pride in being one of the most trusted excavating contractors in Plover, WI, offering a full range of site preparation, grading, pond digging, trucking, and demolition services. Living and working in Central Wisconsin gives us a deep appreciation for the region’s unique terrain, seasonal weather patterns, and soil conditions. From the sandy soils near the Wisconsin River to the dense clay areas around Stevens Point and Whiting, our team understands how local landscapes behave, which helps us deliver excavation work that is accurate, durable, and built to last.
Our company was founded on a commitment to quality, safety, and reliability. Whether we’re preparing a lot for a new home, clearing land for a commercial build, or digging a large-scale pond, we approach every project with the same level of precision and care. With a skilled crew, state-of-the-art equipment, and our own fleet of trucks, we complete work efficiently while maintaining high standards in every phase.

Local Expertise That Makes a Difference
Working in Central Wisconsin requires experience with the specific challenges that come with our climate. Winters are long, frost levels run deep, and spring thaw can dramatically shift soil conditions. These factors impact drainage, grading, and the stability of foundations. Our team understands these seasonal patterns and tailors every project to withstand the region’s natural conditions.
We also bring extensive knowledge of local regulations, permitting processes, and utility considerations. This helps ensure your project moves forward smoothly and avoids delays. From rural properties in Amherst Junction to neighborhoods near Lake Pacawa, we are familiar with the ground beneath our feet, and that familiarity allows us to build better, safer sites.

Start-to-Finish Site Work
We specialize in comprehensive site preparation that gets your land fully ready for construction or landscaping. Our site work includes clearing vegetation, removing unwanted structures, relocating soil, and establishing critical grading patterns. This makes your property build-ready and gives your project a strong foundation from day one.
Whether it’s a new commercial site along Highway 54 or a residential build near the edges of Plover, our team delivers the groundwork solutions needed to support safe, long-lasting construction.
Precision Grading Services
Proper grading is essential for controlling drainage and preventing water buildup around foundations, driveways, and roadways. We use modern, well-maintained equipment and, when applicable, GPS-enabled grading tools to achieve precise results. Our grading services are ideal for new builds, landscaping projects, farm properties, and any site that requires controlled water flow and a stable, level surface.
Safe & Efficient Demolition
Removing an old structure requires control, planning, and safety-focused execution. We offer residential and commercial demolition services for homes, barns, garages, sheds, and concrete foundations. Once demolition is complete, we handle all debris hauling and cleanup using our own trucking fleet. This ensures the site is cleared and ready for the next phase without unnecessary delays.
Small Road & Driveway Preparation
Private roadways and driveways require a strong, compacted base to support vehicles and withstand Wisconsin’s freeze-thaw cycles. We build sub-bases for access roads, small lanes, and driveways that are designed to hold up over time. From excavation to compaction and grading, we prepare roadways that are safe, stable, and ready for final surfacing.
New Home Site Preparation
Preparing a site for a new home is one of our most common services. We dig basements and crawl spaces, manage utility trenches, rough grade the property, and ensure the site is ready for construction. Builders throughout Plover and Stevens Point rely on us to deliver efficient, reliable excavation that keeps projects on schedule.
Pond Digging & Water Management Expertise
Our pond digging capabilities set us apart from many general excavation companies. We specialize in creating and expanding ponds for agricultural use, water retention, drainage control, or recreational enjoyment. From shaping the land to compacting the soil, we build ponds that hold water and function properly year-round.
Reliable Trucking for Materials & Debris
Because we maintain our own fleet of trucks, we can deliver materials such as gravel and sand quickly and efficiently. We also haul away excess dirt, rock, and construction debris. This reduces delays, keeps your project moving, and ensures materials are delivered and removed on schedule.

I hired J.R. a couple years ago to demo my family’s old dairy barn that fell into disrepair. He was fast and efficient in the process and was super respectful to my family for what was a difficult process to watch. I would hire him again.
