"The unused land next to our driveway was an eye sore, and the only thing separating the land from our driveway was rotted wood. We hired a surveyor to mark our property line and decided to grade that land and install a retaining wall. I am so glad we hired ODL. They worked within our budget and did a phenomenal job! They are a small family company, which further boosts their resume in respect to quality and care. They are professional, reliable, hardworking, and talented. I plan on hiring them to do the next phase of adding low growing plants in front of the wall. I strongly recommend hiring them. They do not disappoint."

"Marcus was very professional in his approach to this project. He efficiently and carefully cut down the very tall avocado tree while being extremely protective of the property in my yard. The tree was leaning precariously over my roof and air conditioner before Marcus safely removed every branch without so much as a scratch on anything. He was very conscientious and careful. The debris was promptly cleaned up and removed from my property the same day. Everything was done in a very timely manner. Communicating with both Jesse, and Marcus was easy and reliable. I would definitely hire Wild Green Solutions again for future tree service. "

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.

A perc test takes an average of around two hours, but it can range from one hour up to around six hours. Perc tests that require wider or deeper holes and those that require multiple holes dug throughout your property will take longer because there’s more excavation involved. The actual filling of the hole and monitoring to gauge the rate of percolation should take under an hour per hole.

It takes two to three hours to trench 100 feet with a mechanical trencher or 10 to 12 hours if digging with a shovel. The total time to dig a trench depends on the depth, width, soil type, terrain, trencher type, and your level of experience. Digging in clay or rocky soil takes longer than soft ground.  

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even if the project only involves grading or yard leveling. Excavation permits help protect the topography in your area and can avoid issues with poor drainage. In most cases, your excavation company will know whether or not permits are required and will even pull them and close them out for you before and after the job. You can also verify whether permits are necessary by calling your local building department and explaining the proposed project.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.
