"I reached out to Terrain Solutions Group inquiring about clearing my land to prepare it for building and I can honestly say they were incredible. From the initial phone call to the completion of the job, every aspect was professional and made so easy. I spoke with Peter and he was able to answer all of our questions and help us out with things we did not know as well. I would HIGHLY recommend this company"

"R.T. installed water catch basins under my downspouts and in other areas for proper yard drainage. He also dug trenches and ran underground drainage pipes to discharge excess rain water into the pond and canal next to my house. He did a great job! My house had water intrusion due to poor grading around the foundation and the yard. R.T. helped me come up with a plan to solve the problem. He was honest, hardworking, and conscientious! He is also knowledgeable and good at solving unexpected problems that come up during the excavation. Would definitely recommend him."

"H & P Fencing did an excellent job on our fencing project. The drop down only let me select one type of job however they did more than just one job. They site prepped, installed barbed wire, woven wire, wood portions of fencing, and hung gates. They helped us put in watering stations and fencing that were in compliance with USDA standards. They were clean in their work and didn’t leave behind a mess when the job was completed. They are a professional, efficient, and kind crew. Highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

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.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.
