"I hired Outdoor Visions to install almost 60 trees as a privacy hedge. Austin was friendly and very communicative, and he and his crew did a great job. They showed up on time, finished quickly, and cleaned up afterwards. I will definitely be hiring them again in the future!"

"Overall, we were pleased with our fence install. Russell was upfront and straight forward beginning with our fist conversation. He and his team were communicative and kept us up to date. There was a hiccup with the install due to his team being over zealous but Russell owned the situation and worked until everything was resolved. We will definitely consider Anderson Atlanta for future home improvement projects."

"Stonehenge got involved in the project after shoddy work by another company. They had to rip out a fire pit, retaining wall and cement stone 15’x 20’ deck, haul it off and start from scratch. They rebuilt everything, built a hand rail and railing around the deck. They also Installed a lighting system as well as designed and built 2 sidewalks with inlaid stone on both the sidewalks and deck. The work was completed as promised in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to use them again."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

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.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.
