Our History

History: In 1961, Madison Bagby bought an International TD-9 bulldozer and started what is now known as Bagby Enterprises, Inc.  Madison, born in Escondido, grew up on a homestead near Wilson Valley, attended Cottonwood School near Anza, and graduated from Hemet High School in 1941. After serving as a B-17 pilot in WWII, Madison and his wife Margaret settled in the Sage area South of Hemet.

Madison, a native son and outdoor enthusiast, quickly became known for his expertise in creating new roads and grading house sites that blended well with the natural topography. As Hemet, San Jacinto, Temecula and surrounding areas began to grow rapidly in the 60’s and 70’s, demand for bulldozing and earthwork services increased as more and more people moved out of the cities to own a few acres and live in a rural area. Even in their early childhood days Madison Jr. “Matt” and David, Madison’s two sons, could be seen helping Dad with the tractors.  When the boys weren’t helping Dad they were busy playing and practicing their tractor skills. Soon after high school Matt and David went to work for their Dad and eventually took over the business after Madison’s retirement. 

Today Bagby Enterprises, Inc. operates much the same way it always has: putting the customer first, being honest and cost-effective while working to preserve the natural landscape whenever possible.
