Five Star Construction offers a comprehensive range of excavation services built to handle residential and commercial projects of any size. Our work includes foundation and basement excavation, land clearing and grubbing, rough and finish grading, utility and drainage trenching, site leveling, erosion control, and demolition excavation.

Proudly serving Hill City, Custer, Rochford, Spearfish, Sturgis, Deadwood, Lead, Hot Springs, and the surrounding communities.
The Black Hills present excavation challenges you simply won't find anywhere else — shallow bedrock, heavily timbered hillsides, variable soil composition, and steep grades that demand experience and the right equipment. Five Star Construction has worked across Pennington, Lawrence, Meade, and Custer counties for years, giving our crew an unmatched familiarity with local terrain. We hold all required state and local licenses and insurance. When you hire Five Star Construction, you're hiring a team that has earned its reputation digging in this ground specifically, not learning on your dime.
