Meet Owen Leary: Your Hands-On Excavation Partner in the Fraser Valley

From Pipeline Expertise to Your Project Site

Before founding Leary Site Services in late 2023, Owen Leary spent years honing his skills on demanding projects, including pipeline work. That experience taught him the critical importance of precision, reliability, and getting the job done right, every single time. He saw firsthand the difference that hands-on expertise and genuine commitment made. Starting Leary Site Services wasn't just about starting a business; it was about bringing that level of dedication directly to homeowners, contractors, and developers across the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland. Owen wanted to build a company that clients could count on – a partner who understands the complexities, especially in civil and underground utility work, and who delivers quality without the runaround often found elsewhere.

Our Difference: Owner-Operated Accountability & Quality

What sets Leary Site Services apart in a field crowded with "backyard contractors" and large, impersonal firms? It's simple: Owen Leary is directly involved. As an owner-operator, he’s not just managing from an office; he’s often on-site, ensuring every detail meets his high standards for quality craftsmanship and timely completion. Backed by a versatile fleet of well-maintained equipment – from mini-excavators for tight spots to 25-ton machines for larger jobs, plus skid steers, a dozer, and dump/rock trucks – we deploy the right tools to ensure your project is completed efficiently and effectively. Supported by his small, dedicated crew (including family), Leary Site Services brings a level of personal commitment and responsiveness larger firms often lack.
