"Levi is the best. He did a major excavation project for us involving excavating 5+ft from the top of a hill and leveling/grading the land to prevent water from getting into new construction. This was a very stressful project and he and his crew eased our nerves. It was also amazing to just watch them work. He also moved and existing hydrant line and ran a water to my garage. He diagnosed a septic issue, put down a lot of gravel, and trenched 300ft for an internet line. Great guy to work with; pro-excavation equipment; great price, communication and quality work. Will be my go-to guy for every project. Highly recommended."

"We have had LandCore do a couple jobs for us. The first was a tear down of an old house on our property. From start to finish they were very professional and timely. They worked very well with the disposal company and made sure everything flowed smoothly. A few weeks later we called them back to give our driveway a rejuvenation. I was amazed at the amount of new packed rock their piece of equipment rolled to the top and leveled out without me having to order more stone. I will definitely be making a yearly call for this service!"

I’m a jack of all trades. I was raised to work hard and I have experience in multiple areas. I do excavation for my full time job so I am just looking for a little extra work on the side. I have a truck and trailer so my services can expand beyond what is listed. Thank you for the opportunity!

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.
