SPM Services exists to help landowners navigate the maintenance and improvement of their property. From expanding your current backyard to prospecting new roads through a raw land tract and clearing a homesite we are here to help you get the most out of your property. We want you to enjoy time outside with family and friends while we take care of the hard work of maintaining pond and ditch banks, grading out a building pad, or just cleaning up that "back forty" that the builder left covered in briars and shrubs. Call us today for your land clearing, site prep, driveway/roads, or pond/ditch maintenance.

"Hired them to create a pad and retaining wall for my inground pool mechanicals. The old retaining wall had fallen over and the pad had become unlevel because of tree roots. They did a great job! I mentioned offhand that now I needed to find someone to fix the pool heater and a pump. I had been unable to find any pool service company that would work on the heater, and everyone just wanted to sell me a new motor and pump. SPM "had a guy" that could do all of that. SPM's crew did way more than I expected, were very pleasant, and even fun to work with."

FAQs for excavation projects in Saint Simons Island, 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.
