WHAT WE DO

PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS FOR OUTDOOR PROJECTS

Hummingbird focuses on work that happens outside: stormwater facilities, excavation, drainage, site preparation, decks, and select property improvements.

Our services fall into three primary areas:

Stormwater & Drainage

Maintenance, restoration, vegetation management, sediment removal, corrective work, drainage improvements, and excavation associated with stormwater facilities.

eXCAVATION & SITE WORK

Grading, trenching, utility excavation, clearing, drainage work, material removal, site preparation, and related earthwork.

oUTDOOR iMPROVEMENTS

Decks, grading, vegetation clearing, drainage corrections, landscape improvements, and other exterior projects that improve how a property looks, functions, and is used.

FEATURED SPECIALTY

STORMWATER IS MORE THAN JUST ANOTHER SERVICE

Stormwater facilities require ongoing care, and maintenance needs can quickly grow when sediment, vegetation, access problems, or drainage issues are left unresolved.

Hummingbird brings nearly 30 years of hands-on stormwater experience to maintenance, restoration, and corrective work. Our background includes stormwater facility operations, excavation, heavy equipment, and municipal Public Works experience.

That combination helps us look beyond what is visible on the surface. We consider how the facility functions, how it can be accessed, what work is practical, and what may be needed to restore it to a maintainable condition.

IT ALL BEGINS WITH AN EXCAVATOR

Owner and operator Matt Brown has been a part of the construction industry for his entire career. However, after an injury forced him to rethink working for others in the industry, Matt ventured out to make his way in the excavation and residential remodel world.
