"I was contacted the same day as I posted my need, Mr Franklin came by and gave me a reasonable price to do the work and stated he could do it the next day. He picked up the supplies from Lowes where I had ordered them and brought it to my home. His crew did a great job of replacing 5 shrubs and laying new mulch. They were efficient, and were friendly while doing the job. I am very pleased with the work they did. Would definitely recommend them to others. Thanks again, Bea"

"We recently had our driveway culvert replaced by Keller Group, and we couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the initial communication to the completion of the project, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. The crew arrived on time, worked diligently, and demonstrated exceptional attention to detail throughout the installation. They took the time to ensure the job was done correctly, maintained a clean work site, and treated our property with respect. The finished culvert not only functions perfectly but also looks great and has significantly improved the appearance and drainage of our driveway. What stood out most was Keller Group's commitment to quality workmanship and customer satisfaction. It's refreshing to work with a company that takes such pride in their work and follows through on their promises. We highly recommend Keller Group to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and high-quality excavation or culvert installation services."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

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.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.
