Fire Recovery & Rebuilding

Our Mission

A Promise to Rebuild

The devastating fires that swept through Altadena left scars on the land and in the hearts of our community. But where others see destruction, we see opportunity—an opportunity to rebuild stronger, smarter, and more resilient than before.

Dirt Dudes Excavating has opened a dedicated office and operations center in Altadena, CA, with a singular focus: to restore the land, rehabilitate the terrain, and help our neighbors rebuild their homes and their lives.

This isn't just another project for us. It's a commitment. A promise. A responsibility we take to heart. We've been serving California communities for over 40 years, and now we're bringing that expertise, dedication, and care directly to Altadena.
