"The cleaners and builders did a fantastic job renovating the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Everything was done so professionally. I thought this project would be a nightmare, but they were so attentive and responsive. I will definitely be using their services in the future for any work I need to be done around the house."

"I hired Excavation Services to remove a 550 gal oil tank. I'm glad I did. Bill Came with his equipment and removed the tank. I was extremely impressed with his knowledge and expertise about this project. He knew what he was doing, no question about it. The tank was removed and hauled away. I'm very satisfied with Bill's work. In addition to his work experience, Bill is very professional with the administrative side of his projects. I had the tank removed on 9/23/16 and received the lab results of the soil sample 10/6, thirteen days later. Very good service, very satisfying working with professionalism."

"Our project was somewhat of a last minute repair from a kitchen demolition. Mr Vazquez responded quickly and kept in touch throughout the process. He and his crew were prompt and courteous. I would contract his services again."

"I would give him just under 5 stars just because it took a little while to work out the schedule, but Hernan responded to texts fairly quickly and did an excellent cleanup, including taking down a large, vine covered tree remains (more than a stump, not a whole tree, but a big mess). I can't quite believe I dont have that eyesore anymore. Very reasonable price for excellent work. I feel sorry for him working so hard outdoors when the air quality from the Canadian wildfires is so bad. Thank you very much."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

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.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.
