"Large landscaping garden. They also put in a gravel driveway around my garage. Added two driveway extensions for my extra vehicles. Then added a long extension to park my Semi on to stay out of the street. Also put down a large excellent base for my new Lawn Shed. Plus, a large rock base around a tree on a hill so I no longer have to mow it and now the growth doesnâ t block my view when pulling out on to a four lane highway. Removed a couple of large and annoying tree stumps. . Everything was fairly priced and done in a timely fashion. They will always be my FIRST CALL!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

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.

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.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.
