About Us

Our Story
Beeman Excavating is a family owned and operated Excavating company based out of Dekalb, Illinois. It was started by Tim Beeman and his sons, Cody and Lucas Beeman, in 2016.
The Beeman family has always been involved in construction. Tim’s dad, Gary, was a building inspector and home builder. The passion for all three came from their love of big equipment and eagerness towards shaping and building new things. Tim started this obsession in high school and planted it in both of his boys since they could walk and talk.
