"Review for Service 1st Pros Heating and Air Conditioning In my hectic and fast-paced life I want to take a few minutes out of my day to share our experience we’ve recently had with Service 1st Pros Heating and Air Conditioning. I want to ensure that I include each of the individuals who demonstrated a level of customer service that was exemplary and professional in every aspect of getting our air conditioner repaired. It is not often in our current economy that we find this kind of customer service from every employee in the business that we interacted with. Our heat pump unit went out on June 30, 2023. When I mean out, that left our home at a steady 86 degrees for eight days. It was unbearable and the Technician who was authorized by our Home Owner’s Warranty company to look at our air conditioning issue stated that the problem was in a freon line going into the external wall and he was not comfortable repairing it. WoW…! My husband searched for and got quotes from several different companies very quickly on line and based upon the number of outstanding reviews, we chose to move forward with Service 1st Pros Heating and Air Conditioning after speaking with the front office personnel, Emma and Lindsay who redirected his call to the appropriate person. Technician Chuck Norris was dispatched to our home on Saturday, July 8, 2023, and verified that the problem was in the freon line and was confident that it could be fixed, but it was later in the day and technicians don’t carry every bit of equipment necessary to fulfill each unique job. He did call into the front office and spoke with Tina to establish a quote. My husband was with him as they spoke in a way that demonstrated her knowledge of these types of jobs, what it required, and how to best get it done quickly. Tina once again demonstrated a sincere concern and commitment to help us get the job done as soon as possible. At the end of the call, my husband had a date of the following Monday, July 10, 2023 for a technician to complete the job. On Monday, Karl Davis arrived promptly as he stated in his text and began the task of repairing the freon line that included welding and fixtures on the external siding. He was very knowledgeable, confident in what he was doing, concerned about the temperature we were living in, but fully committed to getting the job done correctly the first time he did it! After several hours, he came upstairs and looked at the internal air handler and safety switch to ensure that they were all working correctly. Again, this thorough and pro-active approach to repairing our heat pump is not the level of service we experience. Technicians come to fix one thing and don’t look at other indicators of what potential problems could impact the long-term repair of an appliance. We couldn’t be more pleased with our selection of this company as our provider for our air conditioning repair. Every single person we interacted with knew their job well and had an understanding of the bigger picture, thus working together very effectively. We don’t anticipate the need for their service any time soon, but would definitely recommend Service 1st Pros to any of our friends or neighbors!! This company guarantees WOW service and we received that and more!"

FAQs for excavation projects in Atlanta, GA

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

Warm weather seasons like spring and summer are ideal times to excavate due to the ground being softer and easier to dig through. However, it is important to note that bad weather, like heavy blizzard conditions or torrential rainfall, can prolong the project length, increasing costs. That’s why it’s best to avoid excavating during winter or hurricane season, depending on your home’s location.

While completing an excavation project yourself is possible, we don’t recommend it. You’ll likely need to buy or rent the equipment necessary for the job. This equipment costs as $100 per hour or $2,200 weekly, increasing by as much as 50% for larger jobs. 

In addition, completing an excavating job yourself poses a safety risk. If proper marking hasn't occurred, you risk hitting buried cables and other critical piping, like gas and water lines. Additionally, if working with excavation equipment, you’ll need to steer clear of any overhead wires. Leaving this project to an excavating professional is best.
