"I was recommended this concrete contractor for a new garage and I wanted to do a driveway, sidewalk, and patio as well. It was a good size job. The work was excellent! My wife and I were very pleased with the work. They worked very hard daily and the results were excellent. We couldn't be more happy and glad we hired them. I recommend them to anyone for concrete work. Thank you."

"He helped me with a variety of home improvement projects from piping for my house, rewiring lights to redoing all the flooring on the main level of my house. He helped when a pipe broke in my crawl space and flooded my furnance causing me to have to replace parts in the unit. He's always willing to help out and very easy to reach and willing to work with my chaotic schedule. All the work he's done has been amazing and done correctly. I fully recommend him for anything and everything! He knows a variety of work, and I plan to continue using him in the future for the continued remodel of my house!"

"Very professional and great work ethic. Projects were done in a very timely manner. The quality of work is outstanding and we could not be happier with the finished product. We were so happy with the workmanship and even hired them again to build an animal structure. I would highly recommend New Frontier Construction!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

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.
