Ben Fienburgh Excavating Team

Our Story

Founded in 2015, Ben Fienburgh Excavating began as a small family operation with a single excavator and a commitment to quality work. Today, we've grown into one of Mendocino County's most trusted excavation companies, with a full fleet of modern equipment and a team of skilled professionals.

Based in Fort Bragg, we've spent the last decade building relationships throughout the North Coast, from Gualala to Westport and inland to Ukiah and Willits. Our deep understanding of Mendocino County's unique terrain, soil conditions, and local regulations allows us to provide excavation services that are not only technically excellent but also environmentally responsible.

While we've grown in size and capability, we've maintained our commitment to personalized service. When you work with Ben Fienburgh Excavating, you're not just another job – you're a valued client and neighbor.
