    Local Crew, Clear Follow-Through

    Work with a Dependable Excavation Company in and Around West Branch, MI

    We clear, prep, and shape your property so your next step is easier.

    When a project is ready to start but the ground is not, everything slows down. Overgrowth hides hazards, soft spots turn into ruts, and uneven grades create drainage problems that keep getting worse. On residential properties, that can mean a driveway that will not hold up, a yard that stays wet, or a build site that cannot be accessed safely. On commercial properties, delays can affect schedules, budgets, deliveries, and daily operations.

    It gets even harder after storms or unexpected damage. If debris is scattered across a property or access is blocked, it is tough to know what to do first. People often feel overwhelmed by the number of decisions, the time pressure, and the uncertainty around who to trust. The situation can feel like it is moving faster than you can manage, especially when you are trying to protect your home, your tenants, or your business.

    That is where we come in. THE MULLET EXPRESS is based in West Branch, MI, and we serve Oscoda County, Alcona County, Iosco County, Arenac County, Gladwin County, Roscommon County, and Crawford County. We bring over 10 years in the industry and a people-first approach that stays hands-on from planning through cleanup. We do not just show up, move dirt, and disappear. We keep communication clear, explain the steps, and help you make decisions that fit your property and your timeline.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Planning site work comes with a lot of questions, especially when timelines and budgets matter. THE MULLET EXPRESS shares clear, practical answers so you can make confident decisions for your property in West Branch, MI and the surrounding counties we serve.

    • How do we know which service we need first?

      We start with your end goal, like building, improving access, fixing drainage, or clearing damage. From there, we look at the existing conditions and recommend the right order. Many projects begin with clearing, then move to grading or site development before trenching or installs.

    • Do you work with both homes and commercial sites?

      Yes. We support residential and commercial customers across the region. The approach changes based on traffic flow, access points, and the timeline, but the goal is the same, clean execution, reliable scheduling, and job-ready results.

    • Can you help if storm debris is blocking access?

      Yes. We can remove brush, downed trees, and debris when it is safe to do so and haul material away. If the situation is bigger than cleanup, we help you organize next steps through our disaster relief services and local guidance.

    • How do you handle drainage issues on a property?

      Drainage problems often come from slope, compaction, or water pathways that were never addressed. We evaluate how water moves across the site, then recommend options like grading, ditch shaping, culvert work, and other site development solutions that fit the property.

    • What should we do before you arrive?

      If possible, mark areas you want protected, note any problem spots, and share any plans or measurements you have. If utilities are involved, we will talk through safety steps and layout needs so the work stays organized from the start.
