Straightforward Sitework for Antigo Properties

Antigo has its share of aging retaining walls, long rural driveways, and properties that need honest site work done right. Thomas Excavation repairs and replaces failing retaining walls, installs driveways, and handles excavation and demolition throughout Antigo and Langlade County. We're a small, hands-on crew based just up the road in Aniwa — not a large regional outfit — and we treat every Antigo job, big or small, the same way.

Featured Service: Retaining Wall Repair


If your retaining wall has cracked mortar, a failing cap, or a section that's starting to bow, it's worth having it looked at before a manageable repair turns into a full rebuild. We repair aging fieldstone walls and, where a wall is too far gone to patch, replace them with modern engineered block systems built to handle Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles for decades.
