"These guys are responsive and professional. They delivered above and beyond what I expected. They didn’t just take care of the job I called them about. They also surveyed my property and let me know that I had a tree in the alley that had grown up through wires (no wonder our tv is so sketchy. I am delighted with their attention to detail and super happy with the value received. Will absolutely call them again the next time I need tree trimming or storm clean-up."

"Jerry exceeded expectations. I had read previous reviews from past clients and they all turned out to be spot on! Jerry is meticulous in his work, timely, communicative, and professional. Jerry clearly has a strong work ethic, is very easy to converse with, and operates with integrity. I'm delighted with the final product and would hire Swiftcreek landscaping again in a heartbeat. Jerry and his loyal crew were a breath of fresh air and a pleasure to work with throughout."

"After our home burned down we found Grand Lake Excavating to do our clean up and demo. They were great! Mike and his team handled everything with our insurance company and we couldn’t be happier. I would highly recommend them and look forward to working with them on the construction of our new house."

"Highly recommend Upslope for your next excavation project. Working with Sarah and Fritz was a very pleasant and great experience. Fritz came out to my home to assess and provide an estimate for the project I wanted to get done and about a week later he was here. To say Fritz is a hard worker and incisive would be an understatement. We were having some water drainage issues from snowmelt and heavier spring/summer rains that was washing out our driveway and causing other minor flooding problems. Fritz knew exactly what to do to fix our problem and his work withstood 1.5" of rainfall the next day. He also graded our driveway in preparation for blacktopping later this year. Thank you, Upslope!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.
