"Our 38 year old home had water line leakage problems that were not only reflected on our water bill but with a "pooling" puddle near the house. Another plumber came out to make a repair visit and a follow-up "problem" visit a month later that still did not stop the problem. A month later when the problem arose for a third time we went on "Angi' seeking a replacement of the line. Robert of Coles Excavating contacted me along with a number of others. His personal conversations, both helpful and informative, impressed me; also his comparatively lower bid. Coles Excavating not only did a fine job replacing the water line, (I waited 30+ days before sending in this review) but Robert's continuing information and support as things progressed was greatly appreciated. My experience with Cole's, in a stressful situation, was truly an excellent one."

"We had Gene at Canyon edge Excavating complete our project in Munds Park this week. We needed a trench dug over 100? from a power pole to our property with all the necessary conduit, sweeps, depths etc for APS. Genes communication every step of the way was outstanding! I work in the construction industry dealing with contractors every day and there is no one better. He made sure everything was Blue Staked, ensured all County easements were correct and dealt with APS for the inspections. I highly recommend Gene and Canyon Edge Excavating!! I definitely will be using him again for our pad and other projects."

"I have worked with many contractors over the years and H-Bros Excavating is by far the best experience I have ever had. They showed up when they said they would to provide an estimate. They started the job at the time they said they would. They kept me informed of the progress, what was going to be needed, each next step, and met the completion time they projected. When they were almost done, I found that I had not communicated exactly what I needed and it wasn't done quite the way I had intended. After I was clear on what it was I wanted, without a blink, sour word, or any frustration, they simply went to work to give me what I wanted. The entire mistake was mine for not being clear and yet they were happy to fix what was almost done. All of this and the final bill was exactly what I had been originally quoted. You will not fine a more professional or personable company anywhere. Their attention to detail and desire to provide me with what I wanted is unparalled. I will use them again and I will recommend them to anyone needed an excavating company. You will not be disappointed. Dan"

"I originally asked this company to come to my home because my hot water heater wasn't working or so I thought. It turned out to be "operator error", but since I was already thinking about getting a water softener, I asked for information. They are a no nonsense kind of company. They only install softeners that they actually use in their own homes. They are a small family owned company who are fast, efficient, and honest. I'm very pleased with the work they did and the price they quoted. No extra costs. Quality work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.
