"I hired Dirt-N-Turf for a landscaping project involving tree clearing, land contouring, and the completion of rock retaining wall, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work. From start to finish, their team demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a commitment to perfection that sets them apart. The tree clearing was handled with precision and care, ensuring the safety of our property and buildings while efficiently removing unwanted trees. Their equipment appropriate to the job made quick work of the job without compromising on quality. The land contouring was equally impressive, transforming uneven terrain into a beautifully shaped landscape that perfectly suited our vision. They took the time to understand our needs and provided expert recommendations to improve the project’s outcome. The rock retaining walls they completed are fantastic. The craftsmanship is evident in every detail, with carefully selected stones arranged to create both functional and visually strik"

"This man hasn?t had a review since 2020 for a reason. SAVE YOUR MONEY! This man has great workers but is unprofessional himself. He?s added on additional cost for things we had already paid for & argued with us we didn?t even when his workers mentioned that we did indeed already paid for the material as well as labor. We paid for doors within the contract as the basement finish & he said we didn?t and that the finish was just muddying the drywall & we would have to pay for doors and labor to put them on. After we signed the contract with doors included and I paid $1260 for the finishing phase. He?s only on time to collect money & nothing else. He threatened to quit in the middle of the job after I had to argue that I paid for light fixtures and he refused to even consider that I did even when my wife as a witness stated we did. When he threatened to quit I said what about the rest of my material and what I paid and he stated well you got some of it. BAD FOR BUSINESS & WE HAVE PROOF! "

Excavating questions, answered by experts

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

A perc test takes an average of around two hours, but it can range from one hour up to around six hours. Perc tests that require wider or deeper holes and those that require multiple holes dug throughout your property will take longer because there’s more excavation involved. The actual filling of the hole and monitoring to gauge the rate of percolation should take under an hour per hole.

The cost to drill a well ranges, but for a well that’s roughly 150 feet deep, you could spend approximately $5,500. However, prices can fluctuate substantially due to factors like geological conditions, local regulations, and variations in drilling methods. For a more precise quote tailored to your location, research local well-drilling professionals in your area.

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.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.
