40 years of customer successes.

A VOSB CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF CUSTOMER SUCCESSES

Over 40 years ago Bob Clark, Sr. quit his job as a Conservationist for the Soil Conservation Service and, out of his two-car garage in a quite neighborhood in Richmond, IN, started his own farm drainage business. While Bob Sr. passed away far too soon, his legacy of independence, his optimistic vision of the future, and his drive to dive in and get the job done right lives on in every project we deliver.

A lot has changed since our company’s inception as a garage start-up: more equipment, more services, more people, and more talent. We’ve delivered technical underground projects in numerous states, and offer full-service excavation and earthwork solutions to owners, engineers, GC’s and developers looking for a partner they can trust to deliver their next project. While the business might look very different from its humble beginnings, one thing remains the same, the satisfaction that’s derived from overcoming a challenge is just as rewarding as ever.
