Fischer Excavating Inc

Fischer Excavating Incorporated was founded in 1994 and incorporated in 1995. With its corporate offices located in Freeport, Illinois, the firm’s initial efforts were excavating services for rural, farm projects and residential developments. Driven by a customer-first approach, early successes in these areas soon led to more complex, challenging projects involving demolition and site preparation for commercial projects.

In February 1997, the firm acquired the assets and operations of Economy Excavating Co. which included its quarry operations. This acquisition was the first of several that launched Fischer Excavating to new heights and positioned the
firm for more challenging opportunities. Today Fischer Excavating is a complex contracting firm responsible for heavy and highway transportation projects, municipal and county infrastructure improvements and commercial, industrial
and residential developments. The firm operates 13 quarries in a 6 county region in Northwestern Illinois, producing and supplying state-approved construction aggregates for some of the most sophisticated construction applications
today.

The firm is pre-qualified for transportation (and related infrastructure) development with the Illinois Department of Transportation, Illinois Capital Development Board and the Army Corp of Engineers. Fischer Excavating has
successfully completed development projects for airports, streets, road and highway construction projects, power plant sites, waste water plants, corporate offices, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, landfills, commercial
developments, residential subdivisions, storm water detention ponds, waterways and various agricultural projects.

The Fischer Team continues to emphasize customer satisfaction as fuel for its continued, rapid growth. This vast knowledge and experience in the construction industry applied through the highest standards are available to you for your next project.
