Earthwork and excavation, self-performed with our own fleet.
Gerber Construction is an earthwork and excavation contractor based in Ellington, Connecticut. Our own operators and fleet handle mass excavation, grading, soil stabilization and contaminated soils for projects across New England.
Self-performed: mass excavation · GPS machine-control grading · crushing and screening · soil stabilization · contaminated and regulated soils (HAZWOPER-trained crews) · trucking · Since 1984
We move the dirt ourselves. Mass excavation, cut-and-fill balance, GPS-controlled finish grading, and the crushing, screening and soil stabilization that turn what's on the site into what the job needs.
Gerber started in 1984 moving dirt, and it's still the core of what we do. Mass excavation, cut-and-fill balance, rock, and GPS-controlled finish grading, all with our own fleet and our own operators.
We crush and screen on site to turn what's in the ground into usable material, stabilize unsuitable soils, and handle and haul contaminated soil when a site calls for it.
On Norwalk High School our crews excavated, graded and balanced more than 100,000 cubic yards to build the pads, parking and athletic fields on a tight urban site with a lot of other trades working at once.
