Dozing on the Job

We actually prefer when our employees doze on the job.

In the video you can see some fine grading work on a residential road going in on Minot's north hill.

June Happenings

What has been going on in our world this June?

Well, we have been keeping quite busy, that is for certain. Here are some photos of a project going on in north Minot at a residential development.

We are also digging a large detention pond onsite.

Friday Projects

We are busy North of Minot working on a residential development for a developer. This week we are excavating for roads that we will be putting in.

 Another project that is ongoing is a new storage yard for Dakota Fence. We have had 10 trucks hauling gravel onto the site this week.

Happy Weekend!

Building a Road of Scoria

Here are a few photos of what Dustin is up to today with the grader. 

If you have driven around southwestern North Dakota, you will be familiar with the striking sight of the red roads contrasting against the blue North Dakota sky. 

The rock that makes up these red roads is known as scoria, which is sandstone, clay, or shale baked by burning lignite coal.

Bluestone Construction is building some roads in the area for oil sites.

Water Tower Project

Another great project is underway today East of Minot.

A Bluestone excavator and bulldozer are onsite today kicking things of for the pad of a new water tower that will be going up this year.

New Excavator: Volvo 340D

It just wouldn't be right not to introduce the shining new member of the Bluestone fleet. Folks, meet the brand new Volvo 340D. 

Fresh off the trailer onto the muddy job site!

The excavator will not replace any of our other excavators, but will instead be used for larger projects. We will be putting it to good use this year!
