Kinsel Trucking & Excavating llc 1675 East Walnut Street, Canton, IL 61520

"We needed to bring down and remove a dilapidated 2-story structure along with an outbuilding. Because of safety issues and tight quarters among numerous utility lines, trees, and neighboring property lines/structures—we couldn’t afford shortcuts and needed experienced pros with the right equipment, insurance, and a price we could live with. Chuck Kinsel and his crew delivered. Despite the issues that required their smaller excavator—Josh surgically brought the structure down on itself safely and efficiently. We were impressed, and so were the neighbors. The site was thoroughly cleared of debris and smoothed over, and you would never know a structure stood there. We’ve hired many service providers over the years and it’s fairly rare to find one so conscientious about all aspects of their operations, and even more so to find one that asks for constructive feedback afterwards. They were responsive, communicative, and easy to work with, and everyone was friendly and respectful. We’re happy our instincts to hire them were validated. We’ll be hiring them again to put in a gravel driveway, and keep them in mind in the event we need assistance with similar projects or their other services including various excavation work, septic systems, lot clearing, and hauling. Update: In Nov 2023 Kinsel installed a septic treatment system, installed a clean-out port in a sewer line, and repaired a couple loose sewer line connections found during their work (at no additional charge). As always, they did a great job at a reasonable price."

"Could not have asked for more! They showed up to look at our sewer emergency and got us a quote the same day we called. All repairs were completed the next day. The crew sent out was very respectful of our property and did fantastic work. I would definitely recommend them."

"Our basement flooded on a Saturday afternoon. I called Kinsel and requested an emergency dig and they couldn’t have been more accommodating. They had the city mark utility lines and were at our house digging within 2-3 hours. They worked, on a Saturday night, until almost 11pm to ensure we had water to use. We couldn’t have asked for more. Hardworking, friendly, and caring people!"

They gave us a timely, reasonable quote, and a fast service schedule. We appreciated that they were sure to explain easily what the issues were. The work was excellent, communication was seamless, and every person we spoke with was very kind. We highly recommend using their services!"
