Built around doing the work right
Engelbrecht Land Improvement is an excavation and land improvement company based in Davenport, Iowa. We work on ground people actually use: building lots, farm fields, hillsides and wooded acreage across the Quad Cities.
Most of what we do comes down to one thing: reading how water and soil want to move across a piece of land, then shaping it so it works. Get the grade right and everything built on it goes easier.
From digging a basement to clearing a fencerow, you deal with the same company from the first walk-through to the final cleanup.
