After 15 years of honing skills in excavation and heavy equipment work, we decided it was time to combine our passion for being “down in the dirt” with our desire to work together toward a more family-focused life.
In 2023, we founded Schimdt Dirt Works to make that vision a reality. Every project is a new opportunity to show our kids how hard work pays off. We’re excited to provide trustworthy services to homeowners and local businesses in our community, while also enjoying the flexibility to grow this venture together as a family.
When a client noticed their aging culvert collapsing, we stepped in to provide a lasting, safety-focused solution. After doing the necessary diligence to identify any utilities in the dig area, we excavated the failing structure and replaced it with a 36-inch ADS pipe. By compacting 5/8” minus gravel in six-inch lifts around the new pipe and finishing with protective quarry spalls, we ensured proper water flow and minimized erosion risks. The result is a robust culvert system that will stand the test of time and protect the client’s property.

Grading
A client in Ravensdale, WA, needed a gentler slope suitable for planting grass after realizing the slope was causing a water drainage issue. After determining the exact grade needed, we reshaped the land by moving dirt from higher to lower elevations, compacting the soil through track-walking to stabilize the surface and minimize erosion. The result is a smoothly graded paddock, primed for grass seeding and built to stand up to the elements.
Trenching
A recent water installation project involved running a 1” PEX line from the main meter to a standalone shop over 285 feet away.
After securing the necessary city permits and carefully trenching alongside the street without damage, the client had fully functioning water in just two days.
We tackle excavation projects for clients all around South Seattle and east of Tacoma.
