West Seneca-based excavation company serving Erie County since 2019. Foundations, sewer lines, drainage, demolition.

Millie Excavating has served Erie County since 2019. We dig foundations, repair sewer lines, install water lines, and build drainage systems for residential and commercial properties. We own our equipment, including mini excavators, backhoes, and skid steers, so there is no subcontractor markup and no waiting on someone else's schedule.
We're based in West Seneca and work across all of Erie County. That means we know the heavy clay soil near the lake, the high water tables in South Buffalo and Lackawanna, and the rocky ground in Orchard Park. We pull permits through Erie County DEP and local building departments daily. We know what inspectors want before they show up.
Matt started Millie Excavating in 2019 after years working in the excavation industry across Western New York. He's on most job sites personally, running equipment, talking to inspectors, and making sure the work is done right the first time.
When you call (716) 253-1527, you're talking to the crew that does the work. Not a call center, not a sales team. Matt handles estimates himself and can usually get to your property within a day or two.
We work across Erie County, NY, including Buffalo, Lackawanna, Hamburg, Orchard Park, West Seneca, Cheektowaga, Amherst, Lancaster, East Aurora, and surrounding communities across the Southtowns and Eastside.

We dig in Erie County every week. We know the clay near the lake, the frost line depth (42 inches here), and what each town's building department wants on a permit application.
We own mini excavators, backhoes, and skid steers. For bigger jobs, we rent what we need. No waiting on a subcontractor's schedule.
Matt gives you a price, we show up when we say we will, and we call you if anything changes. Licensed and insured. Ask for our certificate.
We're in West Seneca, not a national company dispatching from out of state. We answer emergency calls 24/7 for broken water lines, sewer backups, and storm damage.
Real reviews from homeowners and businesses we've worked with across Erie County.
