Trickle Creek Excavation, Inc. is a California-based excavation company specializing in a wide range of services, including pond construction, rehabilitation, and various excavation and grading projects. Founded by Steve Buhler, who began his career in trades after graduating from Chabot College in 1987, the company has a rich history in high-end home construction in Pacifica, California, before relocating to Meadow Vista in 1999. Today, the company operates from a ranch in Red Bluff, California, where Steve and his partner Tracy manage most of the projects.
The company prides itself on timely project completion at reasonable fees, offering services that range from excavation for house pads, footings, and post hole drilling to creating exquisite aquatic features such as ponds tailored for swimming, fishing, or creating tranquil backyard retreats. They also provide pond rehabilitation and installation of pond liners, ensuring that these water features are not only beautiful but also sustainable.
Furthermore, Trickle Creek Excavation places a strong emphasis on environmental stewardship, offering debris removal and fuel reduction services. Utilizing mastication equipment, they help clear brush and unwanted trees, promoting defensible spaces in properties and reducing fire hazards—an essential service as wildfire seasons become an increasing threat.
One notable project included the creation of a mining-themed pond in Foresthill, where the team integrated historical mining artifacts into the design, showcasing their innovative approach and attention to detail. With a commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, Trickle Creek Excavation stands out as a reliable partner for both residential and commercial excavation needs in California.
