"Eric was able to competitively quote and execute a significant improvement to our property in Larkspur by excavating a new parking area as well as installing a stunning retaining wall to mitigate erosion that would have caused the loss of mature pine trees. He also relocated all the dirt to other areas of our property to encourage proper flow of rain and snow melt away from our home. Every step of the project was executed perfectly, on time, with excellent communication and its completion not only served the purpose we needed but it has greatly improved the aesthetic and value of our property. I don't remember the last time we've worked with someone on a home project that has been this impressive."

"David, excavated old septic tank, replaced with new tank, hooked up tank to house, filled in and covered the new tank. Leveled the land, raked the area affected and applied grass seed. Clean up was great! Was always available to answer questions. We would hire him again."

"My barns used to flood badly whenever it rained, but since Eco contractings re-grading, there is no more flooding! I am very happy with their work and would recommend them to anyone in need of grading work. Michael was professional and returned my call immediately and addressed any concerns I had about the project. The price was very reasonable for the work they did and I could not be happier."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
