The Zeller History

Rick Zeller Excavation started its claim to fame in 1976, after Rick decided to leave the County. Rick Zeller founded the company and has since passed it on to Jeff, his son. Rick, as well as Jeff, take enormous pride in their work and work ethic. This is what has kept them in business over the years.

Rick, with his long time friend Eichi and his brother, Denny, worked along side each other building this great community. All, still thriving, have since retired and are enjoying our community that they helped establish together over the years.

Jeff has done his father pride with carrying on the legacy. Not only holding his work performance to the utmost level but also being a community partner and familiar face. Jeff started working with his dad when he was just 15 years old. His knowledge for equipment and community is proceeding. Jeff has carried his fathers sense of family and community with him as he builds this area into the next level.
