D&G Excavating

D & G Excavating started in 1979 with 2 employees, one truck and one loader. The business was operated out of David's basement until they built their current office building in 1994. On February 12, 2007, Brian and Kristin Gruhot purchased
D & G Excavating, Inc. from David and Sharon Gruhot. They are second-generation owners of this company. D & G has grown over the years to where they are now.
