Do not hesitate to hire J.P. Siteworks for your next project, Josh is a true professional. He installed a 3 bedroom mound septic system, trenched a water line, and built up a pad for a garage in time and within budget. Josh went above and beyond what we discussed during the planning phase of the project, including installing a driveway on short notice which was not in the original plan.

I found JP Site Work through a Facebook post, and I'm so glad I did. I was in need of a new septic mound and had called about 6 different septic installers. Not one of them called me back. When I contacted Josh, he was out the next day to look over the site and I had an estimate in hand within hours, I couldn't believe it. His pricing was fair, and his work is impeccable. He is without a doubt the nicest excavator I've ever worked with.


Looking forward to doing more business in the future, I'm glad our paths crossed!

Josh with J.P. Sitework removed my old, noncomplaint septic system and designed and installed a new septic system, work that included the cutting of trees to make room for the new system.

Helen Keller, American Author, Political Activist, and Lecturer


We believe that, above all else, the power of teamwork and collaboration is the key to success. At J.P. SITEWORK, we understand the importance of working together to achieve remarkable results in the construction industry. Our motto, “Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much” is often attributed to Helen Keller, an American author, political activist, and lecturer who was the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. This quote encapsulates the idea that when people come together and work collaboratively, they can achieve much more than they could individually.
