Trenching
Clean, precise trenches for water, gas, electrical and irrigation lines — narrow cuts that keep your yard intact.
Northwest Arkansas · Residential & small commercial
Eco Friendly Excavation
Trenching, french drains, drainage and ADU prep with compact, low-impact equipment. Small machines, tight access, tidy sites.
What we dig
Small-scale excavation, done properly
French Drains
Full drainage solutions to move water away from foundations, crawl spaces and soggy low spots for good.
ADU & Addition Prep
Site prep, pads, footings and utility runs for accessory dwelling units, shops and small additions.
Tight-Access Digging
Our mini excavator fits through standard gates, so backyards and side yards stay reachable without demolition.
Grading & Cleanup
Backfill, level and restore. We leave the site raked, tidy and ready for sod, gravel or concrete.
Small Commercial
Landscape beds, storefront drainage, conduit runs and repairs — scheduled around your business hours.
The Little Diggers difference
Eco-friendly, low-mess, and genuinely careful.
Most excavation jobs cause more damage getting to the dig than the dig itself. We sized our equipment to fit through a gate, protect your turf and leave the site looking like we were barely there.
- Less mess by design
- Compact tracked equipment spreads its weight instead of tearing turf. No ruts, no crushed driveways, no wrecked lawn.
- Lower footprint
- Small machines burn a fraction of the fuel of full-size excavators, and spoil gets reused on site whenever possible.
- Owner on every job
- James runs the machine himself. You talk to the person doing the work, start to finish.
- Straight pricing
- Clear written quotes before we dig, with no surprise add-ons when the bucket comes out.
Recent work
Clean lines, restored ground
French drain, commercial frontage
Perforated pipe and fabric run tight along the foundation to pull standing water away from the building — landscaping left in place.
Drainage through planted beds
Working around mature plantings and rock, with spoil kept contained and the bed restored on completion.
Right-sized haul fleet
Compact trucks move spoil and material without parking a dump truck across your driveway or a neighbor’s curb.
Utility dig, small commercial site
Tight excavation along a finished building — narrow footprint, spoil piled on one small area, turf and plantings around it untouched.
Our mini excavator
Tracked and gate-friendly, it reaches backyards most contractors can’t get to — and it’s serviced in-house between jobs.
Purpose-built for tight jobs
Our towable backhoe rig gets real digging depth into small spaces, kept maintained and job-ready so schedules hold.
