Who we are
When you call Niko's Equipment Services, you're hiring a crew that has spent its working life in the dirt across the Hudson Valley — installing septic systems, prepping foundations, hauling stone and topsoil, and clearing land for everything from new builds to backyard re-grades. We bring our own iron, our own dump trucks, and a small, accountable team that takes pride in finishing clean.
Whether you're a homeowner with a failing leach field, a builder breaking ground, or a property manager coordinating a tear-out, we'll show up with a real estimate, a sensible plan, and the equipment to do it right the first time. No bloated subcontractor chains. No surprise change orders for things we should have flagged on day one.
Read our storyHow we work
On time, on the radio, and on the same page from quote to clean-up. We work how the job site actually runs.
Late-model iron, precise grading, and a finished site you can build on. We don't leave a mess.
You'll know what's happening, when, and why. Direct line to the operator — no phone-tree runaround.

Services
Full system installs, leach-field replacements, repairs, and inspections. We pull permits, coordinate inspections, and finish clean.
Roll-off dumpsters for clean-outs, demolition, construction & landscaping. Common sizes available; flexible swap schedules.
Topsoil, gravel, stone, sand, mulch and clean fill — delivered on the day you actually need it, by people you can reach.
Why us
Most of our work comes from referrals — the surveyors, builders, plumbers, and homeowners who already know we'll show up, do clean work, and not leave them holding a half-finished site.
Premium machines you can read from the road.
Late-model excavators, dumps and compactors — fewer breakdowns, cleaner finished grades.
Free, real estimates.
No "starting at" gimmicks. The number on the quote is the number on the invoice, barring scope changes.
Operator-led, not subcontractor-stacked.
When you call, you get the person running the machine — not a dispatcher three offices removed.
Locally rooted.
Five Hudson Valley counties, one crew, every site treated like a neighbor's.
Permits handled.
Septic permits, BoH coordination, inspections — paperwork is on us, not on you.
Cleaner finish.
We rake the topsoil, sweep the driveway, and walk the site with you before we leave.
