About Us

I'm Callem de Pape, the owner behind Mini Monster Excavating. With over 20 years under my belt, I've been in the excavation game long enough to know it inside and out. Powell River is my home, and I've grown up with its community and landscapes, shaping my approach to work and life.

My love for excavation started young, right here in Okeover on my family's property. That's where I learned not just to operate equipment, but to respect the land and develop a solid work ethic. These early lessons stick with me every day.

Safety is my non-negotiable. In every project I take on, making sure everyone goes home safe is my top priority. It's not just about getting the job done; it's about doing it right, with care for everyone involved.

Here's something a bit more personal: Mini Monster Excavating isn't just a company name; it comes from a nickname my son gave our first machine. That's the kind of personal touch I bring to my work.

When you choose to work with me and my team, you're getting more than just professional service. You're getting a piece of my family's commitment to this community and a promise of quality, safety, and a personal touch that makes all the difference.
