Welcome to Cornerstone Plumbing Company, your trusted plumbing partner since our establishment in 2009. With over a decade of dedicated service, we have proudly become a cornerstone in the plumbing industry, providing exceptional plumbing solutions to homes and businesses throughout our community. Our Story: Cornerstone Plumbing Company was founded in 2009 with a vision to redefine the plumbing industry by offering unparalleled quality, reliability, and customer service. Our journey began with a small team of passionate plumbers who shared a commitment to excellence. Over the years, we've grown, but our commitment to those core values remains unwavering. Our Mission: At Cornerstone Plumbing Company, our mission is to set the standard for plumbing excellence. We aim to be the go-to plumbing service provider for all our customers' needs. We strive to deliver top-notch plumbing solutions while maintaining the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and transparency.

"I engaged Cornerstone Plumbing for a kitchen plumbing project totaling $2,400, which was to include the installation of a sink, faucet, garbage disposal, dishwasher, and related plumbing work. While the sink was installed as scheduled, the remaining scope of work was not completed, despite multiple confirmed appointments. Several scheduled visits were missed without notice, and no proactive communication was provided. I attempted numerous follow-ups via phone and voicemail, but received no consistent or timely response. Ultimately, due to the lack of progress and communication, I hired a licensed plumber who completed the work for $1,807. When I contacted Cornerstone Plumbing to discuss a partial refund based on the uncompleted services, the conversation with management was brief and unproductive. Shortly after I submitted a one-star review on Google, I received an email from the company's office manager referencing unrelated reviews I had written about other businesses, along with a warning about potential legal consequences for posting public feedback. I found this response both inappropriate and concerning, particularly given the unresolved nature of the issue. Based on this experience, I would advise others to exercise caution when considering this company."

FAQs for excavation projects in Tampa, FL

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

Warm weather seasons like spring and summer are ideal times to excavate due to the ground being softer and easier to dig through. However, it is important to note that bad weather, like heavy blizzard conditions or torrential rainfall, can prolong the project length, increasing costs. That’s why it’s best to avoid excavating during winter or hurricane season, depending on your home’s location.

While completing an excavation project yourself is possible, we don’t recommend it. You’ll likely need to buy or rent the equipment necessary for the job. This equipment costs as $100 per hour or $2,200 weekly, increasing by as much as 50% for larger jobs. 

In addition, completing an excavating job yourself poses a safety risk. If proper marking hasn't occurred, you risk hitting buried cables and other critical piping, like gas and water lines. Additionally, if working with excavation equipment, you’ll need to steer clear of any overhead wires. Leaving this project to an excavating professional is best.
