Our Story
Roberts Excavation Services was founded in 2003 by DJ Roberts, a craftsman who believed excavation work should be done right the first time. What started as a one-man operation in Sterling, CT has grown into a full-service excavation company serving Plainfield and Windham County.
Today, DJ works alongside his son Trevor Roberts, carrying forward the same commitment to quality, honesty, and craftsmanship that built the company. Together, they lead a team of 35+ professionals who take genuine pride in their work — from foundation excavation and site preparation to drainage solutions, septic installation, and commercial site work.
We've completed over 500 projects since 2003. Every one of them was built the same way: show up on time, do the work right, charge what we quoted, and stand behind it after the trucks leave.
