"The Western Slope Cleaning Service responded immediately, way before any other business replied to my request for tree removal and carport repair. Lorenzo and George arrived to my property the same day, provided a reasonable estimate before departing. Sent me a written estimate in under 30 minutes, which I approved. Lorenzo and his crew began the next day, despite having to battle chilly and rainy weather. They stuck it out and finished removing two large trees, pressure washed two metal carports, sealed one carport and removed two gate posts for me. The crew did an excellent job cleaning up the site. They were all very polite, cordial and very professional. I will continue to utilize WSCS for a large list of projects needed on my property. Thank you Lorenzo, great job!"

"I hired B & S Excavation, in order to do a few jobs around my farm. Iâ  m trying to subdivide my place, and I needed to find someone who could bring a new water line into the property, and then separate the house and barn water. First job: Excavate a 1,540 ft trench, in order to bring a new water line in for my barn building. Then, connect the new line to the house, leaving the old line for the barn. Second job: Excavate another large ditch, in order to change some water line piping for the existing water well lines. Third job: Repairing a 12â  underground irrigation transmission line that had previously been damaged when the Elevate internet service was installed. Overall, I found Brandon and his team extremely easy to work with on my jobs. He took time to consult with me on every step of the way. If he was unclear on an issue, heâ  d drop everything in order to discuss things with me. Excavation work was done on a timely basis, although the weather interrupted the job at times. The team worked through some really bad weather days, which speaks to me of their dedication to their job. I was extremely impressed about Brandonâ  s ability to clean up the areas on my place that had been excavated. His skid steer work was excellent! You could hardly tell where he had worked, by the time he was done. Brandon did a fantastic job of communicating with me on the phone, especially when we were first discussing the job. He made sure to keep me in the loop, especially if he couldnâ  t make it out to my place for one reason or another. Good communication is key for me, and Brandonâ  s company always excelled in this area. The invoice totals I was charged for in this job were more than fair! Brandon and his team did many extras on the job, which werenâ  t always reflected on my bill. Since my funds were somewhat limited, I was really happy that he worked to give me a fair bill for the work heâ  d done. Overall, I cannot express how fully my expectations were met and exceeded by B & S Excavation! Wonderful people to work with! Professional, dedicated, and they really stand behind the work that they do. I will definitely hire them again, if I need excavation jobs done on my place in the future!"

"GreenLine Landscaping is an excellent choice for landscaping services. They not only installed my grass, but also completed my sprinkler system, landscape curbing, and gravel. The transformation of my yard has been amazing; it truly looks beautiful after their work. The entire process was smooth and stress-free. Their team is versatile, efficient, and clearly experienced in all aspects of yard work. I highly recommend GreenLine Landscape to anyone looking for quality results and professional service."

"We needed a walk way widened. These guys took out the old regraded and poured the new walk in. Got it done very quick and it looks great. They cleaned up very nicely and raked the yard out when they were finished. I will have them back for more work in the future."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.
