Building Strong Foundations With Environmental Care
Expert excavation and site development built on precision, safety, and deep respect for the land and the communities we serve.
Our Story
Schafer was officially founded in 2022, but its roots were planted years earlier. Our founder, Evan York, entered the excavation industry in 2013 and spent over nine years gaining hands-on experience before taking the leap to build a company of his own. What drove him wasn’t just the work itself, it was the realization that true professionalism was often missing in the trade.
At Schafer, excavation is treated as an art: a careful balance of planning, precision, and execution. The company was built to honor that process, taking pride not only in the final result, but in every step it takes to get there.
Who We Are
Schafer, founded in 2022, is an excavation and earthwork company specializing in precise site preparation, foundation work, civil utilities, and paving for residential and commercial developments. Our approach is straightforward yet uncompromising: meticulous planning, modern equipment, and craftsmanship you can trust. Every site is treated as a project of significance, we measure to exact tolerances, anticipate challenges before they cause delays, and maintain a clean, safe, and efficient jobsite that allows other trades to perform seamlessly.
From our beginnings to the present, Schafer has demonstrated the ability to manage both complexity and scale while upholding the highest standards. We lay the groundwork for lasting value, and clients choose us because we deliver reliable results the first time, minimize waste through precision, and serve as dedicated partners throughout the entire building process.
