"I have been stressing for a while with trying to decide what to do about years of erosion and damage from an Oak tree that I loved dearly. Darrell came out, walked the property, offered suggestions that made sense and worked within my budget. Job was completed (tree removed, retaining wall built to stop erosion and sodded) in less than one week. I have another tree to be removed and lawn sodded and I have my guy! Thanks Angi and Peachtwins!"

"Daniel and his team did an amzing job replacing our worn out lawn with beautiful Zorro Zoysia. From my first phone call requesting an estimate and throughout the entire project, Daniel and his team were clear and concise with their communications and professional with all aspects of the install. We couldn't be happier with the results. No surprises, just 5 STAR service!"

I am so glad I found this company and look forward to using their services for future lawn care projects. I used them to trim my shrubs and a trees and was so satisfied with the quality of work I received that I will be using them for larger lawn projects as well."

"We were in need of junk removal from our home. Waste busters did an exceptional job cleaning and removing all unwanted construction debris and unused materials. Would definitely book this company again. They were very professional and dependable."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

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.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

The cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.
