"Kevin is a skilled professional. He performed extensive tree removal and trimming on an extremely overgrown property. But that was not all. He also installed and repaired the property's fence, which had extensive damage from years of tree limbs falling on it. Additionally, he skillfully cleaned up and restored the neglected lawn. This past winter, he provided snow removal services in a timely and thorough manner. Honestly, I haven't found a project that Kevin can't handle. And I look forward to employing his expertise this summer and beyond. Above all else, Kevin is honest and fair, and he goes to any length necessary to get the job done."

"I hired Divide creek construction to do a remodel on my camper and it came out amazing, tore out old rotted flooring and boards, made a new bed frame out of oak for me and made the bed room big with more space to moved around, they also tore out the cheap water damaged flooring and replaced it with new interior wood flooring, they did such an amazing job with their work if I have more remodeling or building jobs in the future I?ll definitely hire them again!!!!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

To determine whether your homeowners' insurance will cover crawl space repair, consider the cause of the issue. Repair may be covered if the problems were caused by an event that the insurance covers, such as vandalism or a windstorm. However, companies won't cover the repair if the issues are caused by neglect or wear and tear.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.
