YOUR JOB MATTERS.
I TREAT IT THAT WAY.

“Provide quality workmanship, competitive pricing, reliable service and take pride in every job, regardless of its size.”

After approximately 14 years working for established earthmoving, civil and mining companies, Jesse started Proper Earthworx to put that experience to work for his own customers.

With around 15 years on heavy machinery, he brings a versatile skill set — from mini excavators and detailed excavation to large plant, final trim and GPS machine control.
