Reflection on Excavation Types and Business Decisions

now in the world of excavation there's kind of like different levels to excavation there's residential excavation which allows just about anybody that owns an excavator or skid steer to perform then there's commercial excavation which has a different set of rules and regulations that you need to know before you jump into that game otherwise it could be pretty disastrous but then on top of commercial excavation is union commercial excavation and that requires a completely different set of rules that you must adhere to before you can jump into that now we used to be a union commercial excavation shop but what we found was that the rules and regulations that we had to adhere to here apply to everything that you do which kind of kicked us out of this lower market of residential excavation which for us was extremely lucrative so it was it was a choice we had to make do we stay a union commercial contractor or do we forego that and jump down into the residential market and give it everything we had now personally that's the route we took just because i love working with people one-on-one and making their dreams come true and when you're doing a job site like you've seen today you don't really get to do that you actually have a set of blueprints that you build off from and well when you're done building off from those blueprints your job is done to each their own i hope this video has helped you guys out so that you can see what it's like out on a union commercial excavation underground utility site because my buddy mike frost from nova frost runs probably one of the best ones around and i wanted to take you guys out onto one of those job sites and show you what it's like when you're running one of those projects god bless you guys whatever whatever path you choose i hope it is awesome for each and every single one of you
