"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 and Josh Turney did an amazing job for us! They removed our old cedar fence and replaced it with a beautiful new cedar fence with solid, and sturdy black steel fence posts. This fence will not only last much longer than our old fence with wooden posts but it is a beauty to look at. We will be enjoying our backyard for many years to come."

"They were on time, very polite, willing to do anything I needed done in connection with the patio project, and some separate from the actual patio (moving dirt away from a gate). Their work was professional, and complete to the last bit. They cleaned up the entire area when they were done. I would use them for other projects in the yard - in fact have already asked for an estimate on building some waist high garden beds."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

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.

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.
