MTE Celebrates 5-Year Anniversary

Mountain Top Excavation is excited to announce the celebration of the 5th year anniversary of the company. What started as an excavation company founded in July 2005, has quickly become a regional leader in site preparation. Currently based in Jones Mills, PA, the company was originally founded as a Partnership between Tim Zeglin and a local Laurel Highlands developer. In 2008, Tim, a Mt. Pleasant native, acquired sole ownership of the company.

At its outset, Mountain Top was created to service the Laurel Highlands home market primarily. Among other things, this included home site excavating, road building for residential development plans, and installing on-lot septic systems. As the home market entered a slowdown in 2008, Tim began to actively seek out other revenue streams. This led him to the Marcellus Shale, where MTE has been able to thrive.

"We would like to thank our clients, vendors and employees for their continued support and dedication in reaching this anniversary. We look forward to reaching our next milestone and goal." said MTE President Tim Zeglin.
