"Excellent customer service and excellent job! London responded quickly with a competitive estimate to remove a large metal shed from my property. The work was scheduled within a few weeks. The job was done carefully and quickly. I was impressed with the efficiency - from start to finish. They took care not to damage the grass with the equipment and thoroughly cleaned up the site."

"My request started off as a simple drywall repair. After speaking with Lisa, we decided to hire them to also paint ceilings and walls in the living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry room, master bedroom, and hall. We also had a couple new ceiling fans we wanted installed, and Mike did a fantastic job with the electrical work. They went above and beyond any expectation we had. In spite of minor setbacks with the home improvement store we were dealing with, Mike and Lisa continued with a positive attitude. They even put up with our three dogs! And Lisa actually chased one of them down when she got out. Their attention to detail is second to none, and their level of communication was the highest. I can't say enough about D'Amico Construction. Not only would I recommend them highly, but my dogs loved them, too. Hire them. You will not be disappointed."

"Wonderful. There are few things worse than going down to your basement and finding muddy water pooled on the floor. We were able to take care of the standing water; however, we had to find the source of the leak. We called MJ Home and they were able to come out the same day, give an assessment, and by that evening we had an estimate. Another representative came out the following day to meet with my husband and discuss the exact plan of attack and the following day they were out there and the job was completed. I would not have asked for better service."

"They did the entire basement (complete perimeter "french drain", 2 sump pumps, etc). Al and his crew were phenomenal. Professional, clean (which is something for this type of work), and responsible. His crew came to work, knocking out everything in less than 2 days. I like to do things correctly and only once. While he was not the cheapest, his name says it all - it was done the RIGHT WAY. His services were second to none including the expert advice. The only company I will ever use and he is the only establishment you should consider."

"They were hired to demo a shed that was falling apart and to dismantle an enclosure around a car port that was warping. They did a great job, cleaned up after themselves and did a little more by ripping out 4 overgrown shrubs at my request for a great price."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.
