No Compromises.
The CAT 12,000 lb mini excavator is the workhorse of every MTL excavation project. Compact enough for tight residential yards, powerful enough to handle the toughest terrain in western Pennsylvania.
High Breakout Force
Cuts through dense clay, rock-laden soil, and compacted fill that lighter machines can't touch.
Compact Footprint
Narrow enough to access residential lots, backyard projects, and properties with limited access.
Precision Control
Experienced operator control means clean, accurate digging with minimal disturbance to surrounding areas.

Owner on Every Job
Jason Liddle operates the machine himself on every project. You're not getting a sub — you're getting 20+ years of excavation knowledge on your property.
Clear Communication
We walk every site before we quote, explain exactly what we'll do, and check in throughout the project. No surprises on the invoice.
Property Respect
We protect what isn't being excavated. Lawn protection, tight operation near structures, and clean site exit — always.
