"After the big rain in April (4/18), I called several companies to come out and rod out the sewer line and send a camera through. Lincoln Sewers was one of the companies that I called to get a quote for this service. Robert Heath came out to perform the inspection. He identified a disconnect in the pipe and wrote out a thorough proposal to cover the worst-case scenario, as well as giving some guidance on how to work with my insurance company.
Robert's knowledge of Chicago plumbing code was the primary influence in my choice of Lincoln, as other plumbers did not identify some of the potential issues (e.g. PVC pipe from the toilet stack going into the concrete foundation, alignment of
catch basin relative to sewer line, running a camera from the catch basin to more clearly identify the point of disconnect).
The insurance adjuster came out, evaluated Lincoln's proposal and paid for the claim which covered excavation and concrete repair, but not pipe repair. I immediately scheduled Robert's team to come out, and they showed up on time and ready to work.
Over the course of 8 hours on Monday, the crew:
  • * broke through the concrete foundation from the toilet stack out to the foundation wall
  • * dug up approximately 18 ft. of old sewer pipe
  • * installed a new sewer pipe
  • * removed all debris
  • * repaired all concrete damage

I'm pleased with all aspects of their work as well as their professionalism and would not hesitate to hire them for future work.

"Originally we had thought there would be no excavation, just a concrete floor. When we probed the possibility of an excavation that would involve removing about 1800 cubic feet of dirt, Greg Mitchell said that they had not done a job this large and he had to think it through. He came to our house and we discussed multiple ways of removing the dirt, considering time, cost-effectiveness, and keeping the house clean. Greg was quite easy to talk to. One of the options discussed was a conveyor belt through a window-well, another was dump trucks in the back yard, but ultimately the solution that made the most sense was to dig down outside the front of the house, cut a temporary hole in the foundation, shovel the dirt onto a conveyor belt that would extend from the crawl space and connect with a second conveyor belt that took the dirt into a dumpster. Once the job started, it was realized that this was not fast enough and multiple conveyor belts inside the crawl space were utilized so that dirt would only have to be handled once. Some of the dirt was too hard to excavate using hand shovels, so power chisels were used. Removing the dirt was over the half the cost of the entire operation. The workers seemed to take pride in their work. Greg was prepared to do a spray fire-proofing but we decided to do wallboard. We also added the steel trowel finish. We feel that he handled this and other slight changes nicely as the job progressed, and the final cost to us was very fair."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.
