The Full Story

PADCO Excavating, Inc. was co-founded by John A. Perkins and his son, J. Travis Perkins in 2003. The company began with a single dump truck & excavator and the goal of becoming a significant operator in the North Carolina High Country's construction community. Following the passing of John in 2014, Travis took over full control of the company. With over 70 employees and about 75 pieces of heavy equipment, PADCO has come a long way. As we look forward to the next 20 years, the future is promising.
