Markos Excavating has been the trusted name in excavating services across the Battle Creek area since 2004. Founded by Robert Markos and now operated by his son Travis, we’ve built our reputation on honest work, fair pricing, and showing up when you need us most.
We handle everything from residential basement digging to large-scale commercial site development. Our fleet has the capacity to service properties of all sizes, from single-family homes to major commercial projects.
We believe in treating every customer’s property like our own. No shortcuts, no surprises, just dependable excavating service backed by over 20 years of experience serving Southwest Michigan.
Our vision is to remain the most trusted excavating company in the Battle Creek region. We’re committed to growing alongside our community, investing in better equipment, and delivering the same family-first values that have defined Markos Excavating since day one.
Our mission is simple, show up on time, do the job right, and leave every property better than we found it. We treat every client call as an opportunity to earn your trust and your long-term business.
Travis started working alongside his father Robert right out of high school, learning every aspect of the excavating business from the ground up.
Travis took over full operations of Markos Excavating and has since continued to grow the fleet, expand the team, and strengthen the company’s reputation across Southwest Michigan.
Hands-on in every project, Travis ensures every job is completed to the highest standard, the same commitment to quality his father established in 2004.
Lara is married to Travis and has been the organizational backbone of Markos Excavating, managing scheduling, customer communications, and day-to-day operations.
As the first voice customers hear when they call, Lara is committed to making every interaction feel personal, professional, and stress-free.
Her dedication to customer satisfaction and attention to detail ensures that when a job comes in, it goes out completed on schedule and with care.
Winston is always on the job — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Don’t expect him to answer the phone though, he’s always out in the field making sure clients are taken care of.
As the unofficial heart of the Markos Excavating operation, Winston reminds us that even in a tough industry, there’s always room for a little personality.
At Markos Excavating, our reputation is everything. For over 20 years, we’ve built our business the old-fashioned way, by doing good work, treating people right, and letting our customers speak for us.
Great service, very helpful, and good people! I would recommend them to anyone.
