The Family Touch in Excavation & Construction

The Lafever family has been providing excavation and construction solutions in Delaware County and beyond for over four decades. For us, it goes beyond having the right tools-- it's the right team, it's the experience, and it's the care for our community that best equips us to complete your project with the skill and attention it deservers. Learn more about our story, our family, and why we're passionate about what we do.

Experience

When it comes to expertise in excavating, customers have been putting their trust in Delaware Bulldozing for more than 40 years. George C. LaFever had two decades of excavating experience when he and his son, Duane, formed Delaware Bulldozing in 1981. George, “the Ol’ Timer,” as he’s affectionately known, still comes to the office and frequently screens gravel, but Duane now handles day-to-day operation of the company. The company performs all types of excavating and bulldozing.

Our Family

We are a family-run business and our staff puts in a lot of care and hours with the clients to ensure that their jobs are done properly. We have built strong relationships over the years with architects, design engineers, subcontractors, property owners and suppliers who trust us to not only give them the best the industry has to offer, but do so at affordable pricing and high quality workmanship. Delaware Bulldozing wants to continue to grow as a general excavating contractor by expanding the type of jobs performed.

Swing on by

The company’s primary service area is Delaware County and surrounding counties. The staff is comprised of seventeen hardworking, dedicated employees. George remains an important cog in the operation, even though he no longer handles too many equipment duties. To many folks, George is a local icon, equally known for his storytelling as his bulldozing skills. Karen invites anyone to “Stop in if you’re passing by, make an appointment, or if you’re lucky the Ol’ Timer will be here and share a story or two.”
