"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!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

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.
