Local Excavation, Built On Trust

Rooted in North Idaho Ground
Gilbert Excavating LLC was founded in 2018 by Curtis Gilbert to bring dependable, locally-run excavation service to Sandpoint and Bonner County, Idaho. With roots in the trade going back to 2009, Curtis built the company around showing up on time, communicating clearly, and treating every property like his own.
Today the crew works with homeowners across Bonner County on everything from foundation digs and grading to septic installation, utility trenching, and full site preparation.
We are a local company and owner-operated which means the person who quotes your job is often the same person helping run the machinery on-site.
