"This group of men were receptive, conscientious, timely and respectful. They took my suggestions, gave great advice and created a wonderful oasis as well as a French drain that is now hidden by a rock pathway. Definitely worth the money!"

"Ty Lewis Excavation saved the day for me. I needed 5 tons of gravel to be evenly spread across my newly built carport on short notice and Ty Lewis did not disappoint. He took his time and got the job done extremely efficiently and professionally...it was a genuine pleasure watching him work. He was not only professional and excellent communicator, but he was courteous and so very polite...truly a joy to work with him."

"Honest, upfront and a true professional. I have him give me estimate. The job was reshaping a long driveway and leveling a 12'x15' patch of ground to place a shed on. He came in the next morning and got it done right. He is a very personable guy, even tho he's ex Army. LOL.."

"Dan was very professional! He dug out my old septic tank and installed a new tank very quickly. My home was in escrow and time was critical. He also removed a door that was not opening or closing properly, reworked the frame and reinstalled the door. He also repaired a roof leak. Very versatile, an all around good general contractor."

"Great. Old water heater busted during the holidays. Don came out to replace with a tankless model on New Years Day. He came back a few days later to address a whistle noise (fixed with a larger gas line) and install recirculation line for instant hot water to back of house at no additional charge. I'd recommend Road Runner highly based on my experience."

"Good service finish the job on time and on budget"
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.
