About Logan's Excavating
Three Generations of Quality Excavation Services
Logan's Excavating is a third-generation, family-owned excavation contractor based in Milaca, Minnesota. Moving dirt is the family trade, and the know-how passed down through three generations shows up on every job we take on.
We're a local contractor, not a crew from out of town. We know Central Minnesota's sandy loam, heavy clay, high water tables, and hard frost, and we plan our work around them. That local knowledge means septic systems that pass inspection, building pads that stay put, and gravel roads that drain the way they should.
