"Morning Star Excavating/Camerone and staff are top notch. Very professional and with a good quote which was what it was at the end. He went out of his way to make sure all was completed to our liking for what we needed and also looking forward to future projects making it easier to pick that up at a later date. Always has ideas on how to make it better and stays with the job until completed. Can't say enough good things about his work ethic and quality."

"I have worked with trackwest fencing on several occasions. They've always sent trustworthy people who can communicate well and produce a really good product. I've done a lot of fencing work in the past but they've always come up with new techniques that I learned from. I plan on working with this company on many occasions in the future."

"This company was everything you could ask for. Their communication was perfect and they showed up when they said they would, were professional, and their bid was reasonable. They stayed on the job until it was finished and they left the site in as good of condition as it was when they started. I would hire them again."

"Kyle and Gus from Summit were great to work with. They cleared approx. 1/4 acre of trees and brush, leveled my build area with dirt available elsewhere on my property, contoured and compacted the remaining area in preparation for fabric and rock. We worked together on this project over 6 weeks, a few days at a time. Communication was good, pricing reasonable and great guys to work with."

"Outstanding arborist and excavator! Compared to other tree companies, Cody saved me thousands. He took down only the hazard trees that really needed to go and opened up my waterfront view without butchering trees or destabilizing my bank. With the money I saved I got extra clearing and grubbing that I wanted to do for years. On time, within budget and quality work. What more can you ask for?"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.
