"This review was 5 stars until about a week ago. I needed a new oil tank installed last year. C2G came out and performed the task. They were the most cost effective option so I went with them. The install was a success and the tank looks great. However, a couple weeks after I had to have them back out again to fix the leaking oil filter. They came out, tightened it, and it stopped leaking... for that period of time. Fast forward to this year and getting ready for the colder months. I noticed a small puddle underneath the filter, again. This would be the 3rd time I would have needed them to come out to repair it. At that point I question if it was installed correctly or not. I called them asking if they could come out, they said with a fee and showed opposition in understanding where I was coming from, saying I was outside of their 45 day guarentee. The lady I spoke with said she would speak to her supervisor and follow up with me. That never happened. I had to have a plumber over to my house, and luckily he was able to repair the leak. The rubber gasket was malformed inside, causing the slow leak. Despite a smooth install, I was really disappointed with how they treated a previous customer. They really didn't care that their work was sub-par. A newly installed oil tank should not be leaking a year later. I will not use this company again."

FAQs for excavation projects in Danbury, CT

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

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.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

Warm weather seasons like spring and summer are ideal times to excavate due to the ground being softer and easier to dig through. However, it is important to note that bad weather, like heavy blizzard conditions or torrential rainfall, can prolong the project length, increasing costs. That’s why it’s best to avoid excavating during winter or hurricane season, depending on your home’s location.

While completing an excavation project yourself is possible, we don’t recommend it. You’ll likely need to buy or rent the equipment necessary for the job. This equipment costs as $100 per hour or $2,200 weekly, increasing by as much as 50% for larger jobs. 

In addition, completing an excavating job yourself poses a safety risk. If proper marking hasn't occurred, you risk hitting buried cables and other critical piping, like gas and water lines. Additionally, if working with excavation equipment, you’ll need to steer clear of any overhead wires. Leaving this project to an excavating professional is best.
