"I am a fellow small business owner. And due to COVID 19 quarantine, my virtual office closed for months. I acquired a small garden shed for my back yard/ land to convert into a temporary home office until. Well, I needed a picture window that I found at a local salvage yard installed. Needless to say I contacted many local contractors who either said my job was too small. Or they were not working due to the lock down. This through my business off. And caused me to lose time, customers and money. This was due to a lack of finishing the interior of the shed. After calling home advisor and being referred to RAFF Construction, they not only promptly arrived and did excellent service IN A RAINSTORM, they installed two additional windows for us. They NEVER made my small job feel LESS important. And they followed up to make sure we were pleased. These guys SAVED my business. And in turn saved my life. I couldn't be more pleased. I will definitely be using them for all of my future construction jobs."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

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 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.

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.
