Grading and excavating done
the right way

Hodges Grading & Excavating, LLC was founded in 2025 to bring serious grading and excavation work to homeowners and property owners across southeastern Indiana. The decision to go full-time was backed by more than 12 years of hands-on experience in the industry. That experience shapes every job we take on, from the first site visit to the final grade.

We built this company on a straightforward idea: deliver quality work at a price that makes sense. Too many property owners have been quoted inflated rates for grading, drainage, and excavation work. We keep our pricing fair without cutting corners on the finished product. That balance is what keeps our customers calling us back.

Wonderful experience! The work was quoted and completed within the same week. Price is very competitive and the work is top notch. During the installs and in between dump truck deliveries the staffing supported minor landscaping and helped with surrounding projects. Great local service that met all of my needs!
