Prepare Your Site With Precision Grading
Every project benefits from accurate leveling and attentive oversight
Dave's Elite Excavating & Grading brings excavating, grading, and site preparation services to residential and commercial clients across the Elkhart-Goshen Metro Area. Whether you're preparing a driveway, parking lot, or addressing drainage concerns, the right groundwork makes all the difference. With laser and GPS grading technology on every job, results are measured in accuracy, not approximations.
You'll know what to expect from the moment your project starts. Site evaluation happens early, scope is confirmed before equipment arrives, and each phase unfolds with attention to how the ground responds. Projects in Elkhart and surrounding communities benefit from local familiarity with soil types, seasonal conditions, and permit considerations.
Your site deserves more than rough cuts and guesswork. From the initial pass to final grading, Dave's Elite Excavating & Grading handles each step with the intent to get it right the first time. When precision matters, so does the equipment and the person running it.

How Your Project Moves Forward
Every excavation and grading job begins with understanding what you're trying to accomplish and what the site requires.

From driveway prep to parking lot grading, coordination stays consistent so you're never left wondering what happens next.
Documentation is part of the routine. Measurements are verified using laser and GPS technology, elevations are checked throughout the work, and adjustments are made based on real-time data. That level of attention helps reduce callbacks, rework, and frustration down the line.

Dave has done an excellent job on the footing in my indoor riding arena. Super nice guy and got the job done quick and did great work. He will be my first call for anything in the future. Highly recommend.

Outstanding! We couldn't be happier with the work done to tear down and haul away old building and site preparation for new building to take its place. Went above and beyond at very fair price.
