"We purchased a 12' X 24' Tuff Shed and needed to prepare a base for installation. We contacted TNG Excavation and they quoted a price and came out, removed the old shed pad, laid a border with 2 x 6 pressure treated timber and installed road mix then compacted it. I took pictures of the completed job and sent them to Tuff Shed. They were so impressed, that they now use the pictures as the poster model on how to properly prepare a site. Trevor was super easy to work with too and gave me a military discount. Nicole, the Office Manager was also a dream to work with."

"Tom responded quickly, and gave me an estimate. He arrived the next morning and had me up and running in a couple hours. I called him a few days later with an additional problem and the service was the same. Fast, fair price and courteous."

"After getting several estimates, I asked Brett to come over to provide an in-person estimate. He sent a very reasonable estimate that included demolition and haul-away of some cement work in my backyard. He also asked if I wanted to add 2 yards (give or take) of large granite rocks along my fence line that I've been wanting to dispose of and be hauled away, for a small additional cost. He showed up on time and made quick work of the cement walkway and the fire pit area, as well as the granite rocks. Brett is a friendly, professional, and he has the skills, knowledge, and the right equipment to get the job done in a timely fashion. He cleaned up whatever mess there was, and it looks great for the next phase of my backyard renovation. I would highly recommend him and his company for any demolition needs. Here are the before and after photo's."

"Jake came out did exactly what we asked him to do for the price he quoted us in a very very short amount of time. We will call him back for our future excavation projects"
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.
