What We Do

Five core services. One contractor.

Grand County's premier excavation, site work, and snow management contractor. Year-round heavy civil services for developers and GC partners across Colorado.

01 — Excavation & Site Work

Built for mountain terrain, scaled for any project.

Mountain States Snowcats brings the equipment capacity, experienced operators, and mountain terrain expertise to deliver excavation and site work at any scale — from single-lot residential pads to multi-acre commercial developments.

  • Mass earthwork and land clearing
  • Foundation excavation and grading
  • Utility trenching (water, sewer, electric, gas)
  • Road and driveway construction
  • Drainage and stormwater management
  • Retaining walls and erosion control
  • Pad preparation for commercial and residential builds
  • Cut and fill operations
  • Site preparation and civil work for septic system installations

Owner-operated fleet. No subcontractor markups. Operators who know Grand County terrain.

02 — Commercial Snow Management

Grand County gets 200+ inches annually. We're ready.

For commercial property owners, HOAs, and development sites, snow management is operational infrastructure — not a seasonal nuisance. Our snowcat fleet and full-service winter operations keep your property functional through Colorado's heaviest winters.

  • Large-scale commercial snow plowing and stacking
  • Snowcat operations for high-volume or difficult-access properties
  • Snow hauling and relocation when stacking capacity is exceeded
  • Storm response and 24-hour emergency availability
  • Seasonal service contracts for commercial properties and HOAs
  • Access restoration after major storm events

Ideal for commercial property owners, resort-adjacent developments, large HOAs, and GC firms managing active winter builds.

03 — Trucking & Material Handling

Site logistics handled. Materials in, spoils out.

Site work doesn't end when the excavation is done. Getting materials in and spoils out efficiently is critical to keeping a project on schedule and on budget. We coordinate trucking to work seamlessly alongside active excavation and construction schedules.

  • Dirt and rock haul-off (spoils removal)
  • Aggregate, gravel, and base material delivery
  • Equipment transport and mobilization
  • Coordination with active GC and site work schedules

04 — Field Mechanical Services

Remote job site. Equipment down. We come to you.

Remote mountain job sites don't have nearby dealer service centers. When equipment goes down, you need a skilled wrench on-site fast. Our field mechanics are certified, equipped, and ready to deploy anywhere we work.

  • On-site diesel engine diagnostics and repair
  • Hydraulic system service and repair
  • Track and undercarriage service
  • Emergency welding and fabrication
  • Preventive maintenance programs
  • Snowcat-specific mechanical service and parts
  • Support for both our own fleet and client equipment
  • Vehicle and equipment recovery
  • Snowcat access to remote mountain locations for cell tower maintenance and telecom infrastructure support
