About Us

Unruh EarthworX is a locally owned, family-owned excavation and sitework company serving Walsh County Area and surrounding communities. As an owner-operated business, you work directly with the person responsible for planning and executing your project from start to finish. With four years of hands-on experience in excavation, grading, demolition, and hauling, we bring practical knowledge to rural homeowners, agricultural properties, and commercial project sites across northeastern North Dakota.

Hard work, reliability, safety, and attention to detail guide every phase of our projects. You'll experience this through direct communication—no intermediaries or callbacks through office staff. When you call to discuss a site evaluation or project scope, you speak with the operator who will be running the equipment on your property. This means faster answers, clearer expectations, and consistent follow-through from initial consultation through project completion.

We've invested in dependable equipment capable of handling the excavation, grading, demolition, and hauling work common to this region. Our machinery is maintained to perform efficiently across varied terrain and weather conditions, reducing delays and ensuring your timeline stays on track. Whether you need foundation excavation, drainage correction, site clearing, or material hauling, the equipment and operator arrive ready to work.

Four years of excavation experience across Walsh County, Grafton, Cavalier, Park River, Minto, and Grand Forks means familiarity with the specific challenges property owners face here. We understand local terrain variations, how seasonal weather impacts project scheduling, and the access considerations that come with rural sites. Drainage concerns—whether managing spring runoff, preventing standing water near buildings, or directing flow away from roads and driveways—require attention to grading details and an understanding of how water moves across northeastern North Dakota properties.

As a locally operated business now in our first year under the Unruh EarthworX name, we've built our foundation on dependable service and quality workmanship. You'll notice this in how we approach site preparation: assessing drainage before excavation begins, discussing material placement options before hauling starts, and confirming grade tolerances before final grading. Each decision affects long-term performance, so we walk you through the considerations that matter for your specific site.

Agricultural properties present unique sitework needs—accessing field entrances without compacting soil, managing drainage around livestock facilities, clearing shelter belts or fence lines, and hauling materials across working farmland. We've worked on properties where timing matters as much as technique, and we plan around planting schedules, harvest windows, and livestock routines when project timing allows flexibility.

Personalized service means you're not handed off between estimators, schedulers, and crew leads. The owner-operator model keeps communication direct and accountability clear. When you request a site evaluation, we visit your property to assess access, soil conditions, drainage patterns, and any obstacles that affect equipment placement or project approach. Your free estimate reflects what we observed on-site, not generic pricing pulled from a rate sheet.

Safety and attention to detail show up in how we mark utilities before digging, how we stage excavated material to minimize site disruption, and how we grade final surfaces to prevent erosion or pooling. Consistent project follow-through means returning calls promptly, showing up when scheduled, and completing phases in the sequence we outlined during planning. If weather or site conditions require adjustments, we communicate changes before they affect your timeline.
