"Haul for One provided EXCEPTIONAL services. They actually showed up early (called first to make sure it was OK), then they worked their tails off loading up and hauling off a trailer full of construction debris, even a lot of very heavy concrete blocks, all while maintaining a very friendly, pleasant attitude. Not one complaint from them even though it was a hot, itchy, bug filled couple of hours. Their price for the work was very reasonable; significantly less than other companies. Plus they arranged their schedule to be there the very next morning (a Saturday morning) after I called so I could stay on schedule. I would highly recommend this company."

"Jose called me promptly and look at the tree to be removed on Sunday in Mccordsville/Fishers. He called me back with an estimate. I then asked for another tree to be removed as well. They came two days later on time. Remove both trees and did cleanup and even clean the debris from our neighbor's drive. Also they checked and cleaned the gutters. Good job guys"

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sterling’s Affordable Excavating! ! They recently completed an excavating project for me, and the entire experience far exceeded my expectations. From the initial quote through the completion of the job, Casey was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. His attention to detail is truly exceptional. He takes tremendous pride in his work and is an absolute perfectionist, and it shows in the finished product. Every detail was handled with care, and the final result was even better than I had envisioned. I obtained three quotes before choosing Sterling’s Affordable Excavating, and I am extremely confident that I made the right decision\. Not only was the pricing competitive, but the quality of the work, communication, professionalism, and attention to detail set them apart\. It is refreshing to work with a company that genuinely cares about doing the job right and making sure the customer is completely satisfied\. **St"

"Michael did a great job installing a drain box in the front of our house. He was prompt, professional, and priced reasonable. He even came back to help us to adjust the box slightly. We appreciate his helpfulness and would highly recommend him."

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.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

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.

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.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.
