"I can't recommend him (and his team) highly enough. What started as a curb stop repair turned into one of those jobs where experience and problem-solving really matter, and he handled everything exceptionally well. He showed up when he said he would, communicated clearly throughout the project, and did the work the right way. He went above and beyond, and it was obvious he cared more about doing the job correctly than simply getting it done. Finding someone who is knowledgeable, dependable, and genuinely takes pride in their work isn't always easy. I'm grateful for everything he and his crew did and wouldn't hesitate to call him again or recommend him to anyone needing excavation work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.
