"Efficient and dedicated to doing the job correctly. It started to rain, so he had to come back to finish the caulking and made sure it would dry correctly and not run as it had because of the rain."

"From the very beginning our experience with Kessler, Inc has been exemplary. We were in need of a specific septic system for our new build up in Crystal Park. Not very many companies will work up here unfortunately because it is very challenging. We had pleasant and informative communication from the start with Levi from texts messages and emails to coming out to view our property. He listened to our needs and not only was Levi able to construct a state of the art septic system on the side of the mountain but this marvel also drew the attention of El Paso county engineering who sent a team out to view it. Levi has since tackled so many more extensive projects like building a retaining wall that covers the entire upper portion of our driveway that runs along the back of our home and into the custom swim spa that his is building for us to digging out a large space to install our underground propane tank. He has also excavated a large chunk of the mountain out to widen our switchback driveway that he built the reinforced retaining wall for. He trenched our entire driveway to lay pipes for our water lines, our gas lines, and our septic. We have a water feature planned for our future and we know our vision is in beyond capable hands with Levi. Levi is also just genuinely good person. He has a very positive attitude and always pleasant even with all the hard work he and his team put in. Everyone is super friendly and we are happy to have them here with us helping make our dream come true. We trust Levi and his team in and around our home. Even had Levi lock up our home and close our garage on many occasions. We are so happy to have found Levi. You know you have a great partnership with a business owner and his team when you keep seeing more and more projects we know we can trust Kessler, Inc to not only take care of our needs but do it all with exemplary work. Hereâ  s to many more years of partnership and beautiful projects to come."

"These guys repaired my wooden fence from the January windstorm. Dug out and replaced 7 posts and reattached 10 - 8' sections. They showed up and worked through a January snow to get it done fast. Good price too."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

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. 

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.
