Last 6 months: 8 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Around a newly installed inground pool, a customer said Gage Dirtworks removed rocky soil, brought in new soil, raked it evenly and applied hydroseed, then left detailed watering instructions. The company describes itself on its website as a sitework, gravel work, excavation, hydroseeding, drainage and land clearing contractor, and says it has been in business 25 years. A customer with an erosion issue in the yard said Eric looked at the yard's overall needs, and the solution he provided included a French drain, a fix for a flooding issue in the backyard, clearing another area and planting grass. A customer whose large lawn project included leveling, new topsoil, grading and hydroseeding said they worked through weather and fence issues and worked well with the customer's irrigation contractor. One customer who asked about hydroseeding a small portion of the yard said Eric came over within 2 hours and was honest that the job would not be worth the cost. A 2025 customer said a 5-foot drop was filled, the yard graded, drainage pipes installed and the lawn hydroseeded. A 2025 customer said Eric cleared an invasive bamboo garden from a backyard, dug the area 36 inches deep and used his truck for disposal. A 2023 customer said Eric worked with their propane company on an underground issue with their tank while they had lost use of their furnace. A 2022 customer said Eric hit a surprise stump while clearing part of the yard and spent 3 hours taking it out with his machine instead of leaving for the day. Connecticut lists its home improvement contractor registration, HIC.0668730, as active, held by Gage Dirtworks LLC. **Strengths:** - Drainage and grading — a 2025 customer had drainage pipes installed and the yard graded - Honest scoping — a customer said Eric advised a small job was not worth it - Quick site visit — a customer said Eric came over within 2 hours - A surprise stump — a 2022 customer said Eric spent 3 hours removing it ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - 5 stars from 27 Google ratings _(confidence: high)_ - [Google](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Gage%20Dirtworks&query_place_id=ChIJdYMMmKK-vkIRBP6aSPHYvoM) — “Google: 5★ from 27 ratings” - Describes itself as a sitework, gravel work, excavation, hydroseeding, drainage and land clearing contractor _(confidence: medium)_ - [Official Website](http://www.gagedirtworks.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): Sitework, Gravel Work, Excavation, Hydroseeding, Drainage, Land Clearing Contractor GAGE DIRT WORKS GAGE Di…” - Says it has been in business 25 years _(confidence: low)_ - [Official Website](http://www.gagedirtworks.com) — “Self-reported 25 years in business” - A customer said a French drain, a backyard flooding fix, clearing and new grass addressed an erosion issue _(confidence: medium)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT210c09IVXpNM2hLY1U5WlowNXJWRXcwY1dOTmFVRRAB!2m1!1s0x0:0x83bed8f1489afe04!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOmtsOHUzM3hKcU9ZZ05rVEw0cWNNaUE%7C%7C?hl=en-US) — “5★ I highly recommend Gage Dirt Works...They were contracted to address an erosion issue in my yard.
