"My front yard was a mess! I wanted to get rid of the grass and re-landscape with low water plants etc. Before I could do anything I need the lawn removed and have the yard graded. Josh and his team did more than just that. I had planned on installing a new walk way. All estimates for concrete were absurd. Josh and his team removed a stump and roots that were running under my house and ready to break my water main. Graded everything. Put in a DG walkway. Repaired some broken pvc lines and laid down industrial grade landscape fabric for less than what the cement walkway would have been. AWESOME WORK AND A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH! Thanks again guys!!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.
