"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 an amazing job with our home renovation. We live in an old farmhouse that needed major renovation through the entire home. Even with the challenges of an old home, they did a great job on everything. Our contractor, Jake and his team, transformed our house into a home. They added a bathroom upstairs and reconfigured the entire floor, remodeled the dining room, kitchen, half bath, mudroom/laundry room, and master suite shower, added a pantry, and relocated our back door to make better use of our space. I recommend them for any project you have on your wish list!"

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. 

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

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.
