Minardi Construction and Excavation

About Minardi Construction and Excavation

On the newer streets at the edge of Fort Benton, where subdivision lots are still being graded and foundations poured before the ground locks up hard for winter, Minardi Construction and Excavation runs equipment through a season most crews spend in the shop. A job site under snow is a different problem than a finished street — piled dirt, open trenches, staged material, all of it needing a path cleared before the day's pour or backfill can start. The work starts early, well before the first engine turns over, clearing yards and access roads so a concrete truck or an excavator can reach where it needs to be. Frost coats every parked machine in a fine white rime some mornings, and getting a loader moving through that cold is its own small chore before the real clearing even starts. That's what keeps a construction season from losing its whole winter to the snow.
