"I highly recommend hiring Michael for any yardwork you need done. He does excellent work for such a fair price. I hired Michael to level grade a 14' x 14' area for a prefab shed. I can't speak enough about how blown away I am of for the work he did. The attention to detail is next level."

"I reached out to K & H Lawns in August on behalf of the company I work for, Watson Civil Construction. Due to the fact that I needed the lawn & bushes cut at one of our Project Field Offices, it was imperative that I hired a legitimate landscaping company that was able to provide me with their COI info & registered FEIN #. I was able to obtain each document needed by the owner, Heather Moore, with ease. She not only provided me with the necessary paperwork, but she gave me excellent customer service in the process. The same day that I called in asking what pricing was like (which it was beyond reasonable) she was able to send Kasey Moore in person to meet with me & take a look at our property so they can provide me with an accurate price. Kasey also provided such excellent customer service when he arrived. More than that, scheduling was done with ease! And to my surprise, they were even able to do our service the same day I told them that I was ready. When Kasey arrived with his crew, there was no lingering around, these guys knew exactly what they each had to do. All three guys that came each tackled their specific areas and they not only got the job done in no-time, but they literally transformed this place. I would highly recommend K&H Lawns to any personal or business owned establishment. They each get three thumbs up from me!! -Chelsey Grant, Project Coordinator, Watson Civil Construction."

"Josh came and looked at the job, he gave me estimate. He scheduled the job and his business partner came and did the job. They were both very professional and just great guys to work with. When the job was done, the final price was actually less than the estimate which was great. Will definitely use them again in the future."

"James and his crew came and prepped a building site for my company, the 40x40 crushed and compacted rock pad was finished less than 24 hours from the time i received the quote. Very professional and knowledgeable crew. Will definitely rehire them for the next project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.
