Rooted in Briley Township, Trusted Across the Region

K-N-K Excavating is a locally owned and operated excavation company based in Briley Township, Michigan. We specialize in residential and light commercial site development — from the first cut to the final grade.

Our reputation is built on a simple principle: show up on time, communicate clearly, and leave the site cleaner than we found it. Whether you are breaking ground on a new home, installing a septic system, or need drainage work done right, we bring the same level of care to every project.

We understand the land here — the soil, the slope, the seasonal challenges — and that local knowledge translates into fewer surprises and a smoother build.

Comprehensive Excavation Services

From initial site clearing to final grading, we provide the full range of excavation and earthwork services your project demands.

Site Preparation

Complete land clearing, grubbing, and rough grading to get your building site ready for construction. We handle everything from brush removal to final cut-and-fill.

Foundation Excavation

Precise excavation for residential foundations, basements, and slab-on-grade installations. We dig to your specs — depth, width, and slope — every time.

Drainage & Grading

Proper water management protects your investment. We install French drains, swales, culverts, and regrade surfaces to direct water away from structures.

Septic System Installation

Expert excavation and backfill for septic tanks, drain fields, and leach fields. We work with all major system types and coordinate with local health departments.

Driveways & Access Roads

From gravel driveways to reinforced access roads, we prepare the sub-base, lay aggregate, and compact to specification for a smooth, durable surface.

Material Hauling

Delivery and placement of fill dirt, sand, gravel, and riprap. We also handle debris removal and on-site material recycling to keep your project moving.

Built on Reliability,
Driven by Craft

We know that excavation is the first step in any build — and the most critical. Here is what sets us apart.

We live here, work here, and answer to our neighbors. Your satisfaction is our reputation.
