"Great experience. Chris is super professional and very responsive. He is very knowledgeable about his craft and his prices super reasonable. 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."

"Chrissy and her crew go over and above to make it as easy as possible for the homeowner. They are like family through the process of Estate Sales. I could not have ever received the best customer service from anyone else. I really loved the way they handled my things with kid gloves. They get five for compassion and caring for my needs."

"We searched for a long while before we found this contractor. The owner of the company is a true professional. They always showed up on time and completed my job in great time despite extremely cold winter temperatures. I must say the work that they did was excellent and my seawall is now the envy of the entire neighborhood. We will certainly be using this contractor in the future. He's very good, so his schedule gets busy quickly."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

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.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.
