Brophy Excavation is a family-operated company with a combined 15+ years of experience in demolition, excavating, shoring and backfill. We are proud to be WBE certified by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council. At Brophy, we're not only breaking ground, we're breaking barriers! Brophy Excavation was formed in 2016 by Bernie Mc Nally along with two of her sons, Tom and Fin Brophy.
Demo specialist Tom Brophy's reputation as an expert in the field of demolition, extends beyond Brophy Excavation. Tom is highly skilled in the art of knocking buildings in tight urban spaces, and handling emergency demolitions where safety is the utmost concern. Our demo team is supervised by Tom Brophy and adhere to city codes and OSHA safety compliance while in the field and operating heavy equipment.
Costly mistakes, building cave-ins and collapses occur when untrained laborers dig too deep, the shoring is shoddy, measurements are off or the grading was poorly executed. It's important for you as a GC, private developer, or investor, not to cut costs when hiring an excavation company as it will only cost you more in the long run.
If you've ever had to stand in line for hours at City Hall or been on the verge of pulling your last hair out after being transferred to three different phone lines, we hear you loud and clear!. Let's face it, the permit process is downright tedious and eats up a lot of time. We understand just how valuable your time is, and that's why we make the process easy for you.
We, Chicago Custom Home Builders, have worked with Brophy Excavation on multiple projects within the Chicagoland area over the past decade and have always been delighted with their work and how they work alongside us. Brophy Excavation have always shown a professional manner in how they get their work done.
