It’s been a busy couple of weeks here at Lott Excavating. We’ve started a couple new projects and wrapping up some others.

We’ve recently been working at the Middletown water treatment plant. We’ve dug the footing’s and helped Henson Robinson Company dig in all their underground plumbing.

We also started a new project in Hillsboro at the hospital where we are assisting B&B Electric with digging in all the underground electric.

If you or any of your friend’s have any excavating projects coming up, give us a call we’d love to help or point you in the right direction.

Be sure to go check out the Menard County Fair this week and look for the Lott Excavating sign on the track fence!
