  I can’t recommend Head’s Excavating enough! We recently hired them for a septic system upgrade and the whole experience was fantastic. They showed up right on time, stuck strictly to the budget they quoted us, and did an amazing job. What really blew me away was how clean they left the site—you’d barely even know they were just digging up the yard for an upgrade. Friendly, professional, and local. If you need septic or excavation work done around Ithaca, these are your people!

  My spouse and I had to replace our exterior water line. The City had found a lead pipe on their side of our water service and wanted to replace and repair it. The City would dig up the street. My contractor would have to dig up our lawn to the foundation to let our plumber put in a new line. I interviewed a number of excavator contractors. Head’s was the only one among them to quote the “dig it out, and fill it in” job and provide a full review of all the things that might go wrong with the work. He earned our trust with that explanation. It helped that his pricing was very competitive too. The work was completed in less than a day. None of the “might have gone wrong’s” went wrong. The excavated lawn has been put together, seeded and mulched. We couldn’t be happier. I’d heartily recommend Head’s to other homeowners with similar needs.

  Needed to replace parent's 60 year old septic system. Patrick responded quickly to our request, was professional, and answered all of our questions. Members of his crew - Mike and Junior were pleasant and hard working. New system replaced in a little over a months time from initial call to end of project. AMAZING! Highly recommend, you won't be sorry!

  Patric was a great resource in working my main sewer line issues. Great professional customer service! Rob from Warden plumbing was also very helpful!
