"AP Excavating installed a drinking post for our horses and replaced a water hydrant. Wonderful father and sons family business - great to work with them and their crew. I was impressed with the quality of work and their commitment to making sure they exceeded our expectations. I will be using them for our next projects: entry gate, trenching work and landscaping driveway island. Thank you AP Excavating!"

"I do not normally leave a review for someone unless they were exceptionally good or exceptionally bad. In this case Shawn Maupin of Everything Excavation was exceptionally good. I had a career as an accountant, but I have built two houses in retirement, which means I have hired countless contractors and Shawn was among the four or five best I have ever dealt with. He spent a day in a skidsteer leveling a lot. He had the lowest of the three bids I received, arrived on time, was a master of the skidsteer, understood my plan and was fully cooperative as the plan evolved. What more could you ask for? I did not receive compensation in any form for writing this review."

"The repairman showed up when he said he'd be here. He got the job done quickly. I noticed the next morning that there was a small leak. I called and spoke with the same repairman and he came right away and took care of it."

"I hired them to get an irrigation system up and running that was winterized by the prior tenants. I just purchased the house in January and it is my first rodeo with lawn sprinklers so they got it up and running. Only issue is programming no literature was left with the unit and technician left left with no hints."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help.
