ABOUT US

image

JohnEdirt was founded in 2014 by then-student John Ellis. John, a truck enthusiast and budding entrepreneur began doing tractor work to help pay for school. He quickly realized that he had a knack for these services and a natural talent for tractor operation. Ellis’s father, a successful businessman, allowed John to use his basic Kubota tractor for small projects locally.
Within a couple months, JohnEdirt was born. John withdrew from college and used the money he had saved to purchase his very own tractor. JohnEdirt quickly became a household name in the area, due to his inspiring work ethic and incredible reputation.
Now, John continues to expand his business by acquiring more equipment and hiring more full and part-time employees. JohnEdirt’s market has expanded throughout Pierce and Kitsap counties.

TESTIMONIALS

We needed a community dirt road repaired from the large amount of use and overabundance of rain. There were so many potholes it was awful having to drive to and from our homes. We called John and he came out the same day. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable about what needed to be done. He said he could get started as soon as the very next day. He was on time and was very respectful of the cars that needed to pass down the road while he and his crew were working. The pricing was reasonable and our neighbors cannot say enough good things about his work. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

John & his crew did a small excavation job for us & re-rocked our driveway & RV pad. They were affordable on their bid, showed up on time, and did a very thorough & meticulous job. Super nice guys too! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a local company to do great work for you.

Excellent service! Asked them to move a shed and dump some gravel for us. They had never moved a shed before but these guys worked hard to figure out how to do it and they got it done. The work was done well and they are much more affordable than other folks we called for the same work. Great job John. We're calling you back for more work to be done on our yard later. Looking forward to working with you again.

The entire team is dedicated, motivated, and trustworthy. Their performance and end product proved John E. Dirt is the best company for land clearing. Thanks for the great work - you added value to my project! I highly recommend John E. Dirt, give him a call!
