"W.E.B United did an excellent job installing a gravel pad for a trailer/camper, and also trenching over 400 feet through soil and roots. Bruce, the owner, communicated any potential issues up front and took the time to go over options and costs. Bruce also immediately adjusted and expedited the start date as I needed to coordinate the larger project with other work being done. Bruce and Scott showed up on time the next week, were polite, and finished the job with no issues in a timely manner. I will most definitely call Bruce again for further improvements to our land."

"PSB home solutions took on the job of removing 20 years worth of vines from the side of my house. Within the time period promised and at the price agreed to, PSB home solutions removed the vines, repair the stucco, and painted that portion of the house all within the time promised. They left the job Cleaner then when they started."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

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.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
