"I bought my house a few years ago and always planned to redo the front garden. I wasnâ t in a place where I could pull everything up myself so I hired The Brothers to demo my front garden and give me the clean slate to plant my dream garden. Itâ s a small project but one Iâ m glad they handled. They were very communicative and responsive to all my questions. Iâ ll definitely be in touch with other projects I have planned."

"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."

"Greenmen landscaping did an amazing job on our backyard landscaping. I felt like I was on HGTV! We recently purchased a new home that desperately needed an overhaul in the backyard. It is now the perfect oasis for our family and small children and pup! We couldn’t be happier with the work performed. The crew was always professionally and tidy. There was so much work to do but the team worked diligently and the project was complete within about a week. Thank you Greenmen landscaping!"

"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.

"We contacted Atlanta Bobcat Services for the demolition of our in-ground pool. It was evident from when Mark came for the quote that he had the know-how for the job, and was already formulating a plan. The work was nothing short of amazing. Well planned and executed with attention to detail. Mark and his crew really knocked it out of the park. Atlanta Bobcat turned our decrepit pit of a swimming pool into usable yard space. We are very satisfied and would definitely recommend them."

"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."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

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.

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

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.
