"We are so happy with everything this company has done! We cannot stop singing their praises. They went above and beyond to restore the master bathroom which was a massive undertaking. They also restored the master bedroom, removed a ton load of junk, redid the basement floors, painted walls, repaired water damage and even gave sound advice on other concerning things around the home and the landscaping and so much more. Wow! What an undertaking. And it was done with grace, patience and the highest level of professionalism. They kept us calm throughout the process when things became overwhelming for us. We will use them for all our contracting and landscaping needs. What a great experience and beautiful outcome. A million thank youâ s!!!!!!! God bless."

"Atlas tree Service did a terrific job digging a French drain, replacing a dead holly tree, and trimming up a large oak tree for me. The drain is working beautifully and the sod looks beautiful. I would recommend them highly."

"Such a great experience from beginning to end! They helped repair a roof and rotted wood from a 35-40 foot high roof on a historic condominium building in Midtown Atlanta. There were a number of complicated logistics with equipment and custom cutting and installation. Final House are experts at what they do and can help you accomplish an array of complicated projects with ease."

"Work was performed very fast, four days on site.  first day demo and removal of bad wood, Second fixing wall, adding draining; third finalizing wall and replacing top rail.  Final day was creating a dry rock bed to divert water away from outdoor living space.  Filipe came back and walked through the steps.  He showed me what was changed and which areas he fixed.  Easy to work with, fast.
I'd consider him for other work.

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.
