PROFESSIONAL LAND CLEARING & GRADING
At Dirty Work Excavating we don't just clear land and move dirt - we build the foundation for what's next!
We take pride in being family owned & operated - providing quality services to the Stillwater and surrounding communities. Trust, transparency and top-notch service are at the heart of everything we do. No shortcuts. No surprises. Just honest work and solid results.
Our STORY
Dirty Work Excavating was built on a simple belief: someone has to do the dirty jobs — and do them right. What began as a one-man operation with a single machine has grown into a full-service land management company, expanding from small jobs to professional land clearing and site preparation through hard work and reliability.
While our services have grown, our mindset hasn’t. We still bring the same hands-on dedication, grit, and pride to every project.

RECENT REVIEWS
"Thank you for prompt quality work. It was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you."
— Ed from Stillwater, MN
“I am a high school horticulture teacher and live near Afton, Minnesota. I have a lot of acreage that needed to be cleaned up -fallen trees, dead limbs, dead ash trees, etc. I contacted Dirty Works and talked to the owner. He set up an appointment and promptly met at the specified time. We agreed on work to be done. The owner showed up promptly when he said he was going to. He is polite and super nice. I was very impressed. He spent eight hours cleaning and working super hard. He was willing to listen to what I needed to have done and did a fantastic job. You can’t go wrong having Dirty Works help you with your outdoor needs. I strongly recommend them!
