About Williams Excavating Inc

West Stockbridge climbs in a hurry once you leave the village — long gravel drives, steep pitches, dooryards tucked under the shoulder of the mountain. Williams Excavating Inc plows that kind of ground, the drives that want a wide blade and somebody who knows where the culverts sit before snow hides them. A Berkshire nor'easter comes in sideways off the ridge and keeps at it all night; the work is pushing, stacking the banks back where they belong, and sanding the grades so nobody has to give them a second thought. Dawn on a cleared hill road, blue snow either side and a bare stripe of gravel running down toward Route 102, is a plain sort of beautiful. That is the whole job — get the mountain open again.
