Backhoe Work in Central Texas
Backhoe contractors for trenching, utility lines, footings, backfill, and small-site digging across Central Texas.
The job that's too big for a shovel and too small for a dozer
Plenty of dirt work falls in the gap — a water line to the barn, footings for a shop, a trench for electric, a drain that needs to go somewhere. Hiring a big-iron crew for it is overkill, and doing it by hand is a lost weekend and a crooked trench. That's exactly what a backhoe is for.
One machine, dig and backfill
A backhoe digs clean, straight trenches on one end and loads, backfills, and cleans up on the other. That means fewer machines on your property, less time on site, and a finished job that's graded back instead of left as a dirt pile.

Backhoe Work FAQs
Common questions about hiring backhoe contractors in Central Texas.
01What kind of backhoe work do you do?
Trenching for water, electric, and septic lines; footing and foundation digs; culvert and drain excavation; backfill and compaction; stump and rock removal; and general small-site digging where a full-size excavator is more machine than the job needs.
02How much does backhoe work cost in Central Texas?
Most backhoe jobs price by the scope rather than a flat hourly rate — trench length and depth, soil and rock, access, and how much backfill and cleanup is involved all move the number. We come out, look at the actual site, and quote it free.
03Do you locate utilities before trenching?
Yes. We call in locates before we dig and hand-expose where lines are marked. Digging blind next to a gas or fiber line is how a cheap trench becomes an expensive day.
04Backhoe or mini excavator — which does my job need?
A backhoe is hard to beat for trenching plus loading and backfill in one machine on open ground. A mini excavator wins in tight backyards, near structures, and on finish work. We run both and bring whichever fits your site.
05Do you work on residential lots as well as ranch property?
Both. We do backhoe work on residential lots in and around Waco, Gatesville, McGregor, and Clifton, and on ranch and acreage properties across Central Texas.
