A Small Crew You Can Count On

Thomas Excavation is a small, hands-on excavation and sitework company based in Aniwa, Wisconsin, serving property owners throughout Wausau and Central Wisconsin. We're not a large outfit — we're a crew that shows up, does the work right, and treats every job like it matters, whether it's a small residential repair or a larger private project.


From failing retaining walls to full lot clearing and demolition, we bring the equipment and experience to get the job done without the runaround.

Our Core Services

Retaining Wall Repair & Replacement


Wisconsin's freeze-thaw cycles are hard on old rock and fieldstone retaining walls — cracking mortar, bowing sections, and walls that have simply reached the end of their life. We repair and replace failing retaining walls throughout the Wausau area, from small residential walls to larger reinforced installations.

Precision excavation for foundations, basements, grading, and site prep. We operate modern equipment and deliver clean, level, build-ready results.
