"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 have used strand services for over 2.5 years! They are always on time, and reliable! I’m a project manager for 4x industrial for the reclamation side of the oil field where we return properties to their natural form! We utilize their services for potholing and mowing so we have a safe work space and know the depths of lines wether abandoned or live!! Their job ensures my operators saftey!!They always fill in their holes, mark depths and take photos and send them to me so I have it on record! I know they do other services but these are what my team utilizes them for! If you’re looking for a reliable company and team, this is the one!! Respectful and diligent!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.
