"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."

"Kenny and his crew were awesome. I had a different idea for a residential fence other than wood and Kenny was very open minded and worked with me on some other ideas and options to bring this project together. Very impressed with workmanship and customer service. We installed a galvanized corrugated fence with steel pipes. Very industrial and unique. I would definitely recommend this company as well as hire them again for my next project."

"Austin got right in there and got the job done. Very nice guy that keeps his head down until the job is finished. He gave me the best bang for my buck and in my opinion Shippy Construction does some of the best work around. I would hire him back in a heartbeat. Thx again Austin"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

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.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

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.
