"The project went very well. My property suffered a double discrepancy situation. I received a higher than usual water bill. At the same time, found water flowing from underneath the entrance to our driveway. Water line failure. So the fix is, two birds one stone so to speak. Since the meter was still ticking when Billy arrived, he located the water leak and decided to bypass the leak entirely with new equipment. That way, we both had time to figure out our next steps to repair while the water meter was not consistently running. Then, he brought in excavation equipment, demolished and removed the debris that same day. Even with a slight weather delay, the project was done timely, and at the end we were very satisfied with the finished effort. Billy kept me well informed with text and photo messages. He bid this project within my budget and we got started right away. I would recommend Mr. Hays expertise and have already to MacDill AFB contracting personnel."

"I only needed dirt delivered to my residence for my own labor/work...Jeremy talked me through my options and quoted a price lower than anything I'd found on my own online/from other contractors. Quick, professional, polite, easy to talk to. Topsoil arrived in a timely fashion and is perfect for my project(s)."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

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.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.
