About Rooney Excavating LLC

We’re proud to be a multi-generation Tennessee excavation company that believes in hard work, honesty, and treating customers like family.
From our home base in Seymour, we’ve served the Maryville area for over 30 years — working on rural properties, mountain lots, and new home developments.
You’ll work directly with members of the Rooney family, not a subcontracted crew, ensuring accountability and personal service from start to finish.
