"This project with Rito of C & R Field Services could not have gone better, and I am 100% satisfied. Rito was very communicative from beginning to end, sharing with me his timing, costs, and process along the way. He worked long days, including in a snow storm, until the project was done. When I needed a tall gate panel that didn't exist in that form, he improvised by finding what I wanted and welding on the spot the necessary hinges to make it work, which it does perfectly. Impressive! The craftsmanship of the fence is impeccable, something that looks great and I am proud to have on my property. Rito also provided excavation work for me, as well as demo of a dog run and big tree house, taking everything to the dump for me after. He went the extra mile with everything he did, providing kindness and professionalism at every step. I fully plan to utilize Rito's expertise and services for any project I possibly can. He and his work are quality all the way around."

"They did an Awesome Job with replacing the fence and worked with me on my insurance adjustment. They also grounded some stumps that was included in the cost. The people they had install the fence were not illegals which was a big plus. Great guys I would defiantly recommend them to anyone and have."

"I have a 7% slope on my property and needed the ground leveled to build a large round pen. I also had a 40 ft connex box on the way and needed the ground built up and leveled for the Connex box to sit on. To build the round pen one side of the hill had to be lowered about 5 ft to build up the opposite side. In only 1-1/2 days, my round pen was ready for the steel panels to be delivered, and the area built up and flattened in time for my Connex box. I gave DC Land and Clearing a general description of what I needed, and didn't have to think about it after that. I didn't ask for gentle sloping sides on all sides of the round pen given the amount of dirt that had to be moved, but was very pleased to see them. My Connex box has been delivered and sits flat on the raised, smoothed ground. I am very pleased with the work performed by DC Land and Clearing LLC, and highly recommend them for any kind of dirt clearing and re-shaping you need done. Their experience shows in doing the extra landscaping they did to ensure the ground could be re-planted and easily maintained, and safe to walk on in all kinds of weather. DC Land and Clearing LLC gave me the quality I wanted without realizing that's what I wanted until the job was done. A professional job at the price I expected to pay. No surprises, no surcharges, no damage to the well head 10 ft away, and nothing missing when they were done."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

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.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.
