"We used Redline Excavation and Landscape to help prep our property and land for the installation of a 20 x40 metal building. Braden immediately began working to create the pad our building now sits on. It was evident he cares greatly about the work he does, and really takes customer satisfaction to heart. Our pad came together quickly, was level, and we had our building installed the same week. We cannot recommend Redline Excavation and Landscape enough! They are a small business with big heart."

"Very, very happy with this pro. They were prompt and completed the job in minimum time. What they said they would do, they did, and they always kept me updated. A real joy to have met these young men and I would hire them again without question."

"Bales Construction did a kitchen and bath remodel for me. Both were total gut jobs on a 100 yr old house. I’m extremely pleased with their work and their workers. We had absolutely no experience with remodeling and Jake Bales was extremely helpful with our kitchen and bath layout. I would highly recommend them."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

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.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

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.
