"We had an excellent experience with Elevated Environments from start to finish. Nick listened to what we needed and kept revising as we went until we came up with the perfect plan. Communication was excellent throughout. The crew was unobtrusive and efficient. Our drainage problem is fixed and we ended up with a beautiful fire pit area. We cannot recommend this company more highly."

"Jen2 Excavating is an exceptional company in multiple ways. Yes, Marcus Garcia and his Jen2 team are prompt, polite, hardworking, from start to finish and estimate and price the work accurately and fairly. There is more to the story. We attempted to contact eight Pueblo and Pueblo West Companies to clear the tall grass, weeds, and brush that was rapidly overtaking our desert landscaped property. We sent them all a brief standardized description of the work and the land areas involved. Jen2 alone, responded immediately, came out the same day to estimate the work, and a week later our acre size yard was restored and cleared, and we were delighted with the work done. The other service companies contacted either failed to respond altogether or sent prefabricated emails and text messages within the time it took Jen2 to finish the work. So, start by contacting Jen2 if you have tall grass, weeds, and brush removal job, and avoid the disinterested candidates."

"Efficient and dedicated to doing the job correctly. It started to rain, so he had to come back to finish the caulking and made sure it would dry correctly and not run as it had because of the rain."

Even though during our project the snow and cold temperatures were a hurdle at times, they performed outstanding work with attention to detail. I highly recommend them for any turf project or landscaping project you want to pursue! We definitely will use them again in the future!"

"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."

"Super happy with how our backyard turned out working with Chris and his team! We received several quotes and they were by far the most cost effective and were able to get us in the quickest. We moved into our home last year and the backyard was severely neglected and had drainage issues. We had the Northwind team come in and fix our walkway to the backyard, bring in top soil and add in sod! It turned out awesome - we are so happy with it!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.
