About Us

Excellence in Equipment Rentals.

Founded in March 2023, Thomas Excavations was built on a passion for dirt work and heavy equipment. From the moment I first operated a machine, I knew I wanted to create something bigger—an excavation company that not only supports my family’s future but also inspires the next generation to embrace the trades. With fewer young people entering the field, my mission is to make excavation exciting, rewarding, and a career worth pursuing.

At Thomas Excavations, we take pride in our skilled team and commitment to excellence. Adam Jennings, our “Rookie of the Year,” brings dedication and drive to every project. As a woman-owned business with a septic license in two counties, we deliver expert excavation and site work with integrity, precision, and a vision for the future.

Navigating local regulations can be complex, so we take care of obtaining any necessary permits and ensure that our work meets all Michigan and county requirements. We work closely with local authorities to comply with zoning laws, soil erosion and sediment control requirements, and other relevant regulations. Our goal is to make the process as smooth as possible for you, providing peace of mind that your project is fully compliant.

Before starting any job, we assess the scope of work, site conditions, and specific requirements (such as soil type, accessibility, and weather considerations). After this evaluation, we provide a detailed estimate covering labor, equipment, and materials. We prioritize transparent communication so you know exactly what to expect. Timelines can vary depending on the complexity of the project, but we always strive to complete the work on schedule without compromising quality or safety.
