"I called Bill on a Tuesday. He came to my house to look at the job on Wednesday. On Thursday & Friday he completed the task and returned on Saturday to pick up the excavator. My driveway is a very long gravel driveway that needed major regrading, crowning, ditch clearing and gravel recovery. The driveway is RPG gravel and required four large loads. I couldn't be happier with the finished job not to mention the response by Bill and his dad Matt. I am thinking of hireing him again for some concrete work next year."

"Matt and Brittney did a wonderful job fixing my front porch. It looks terrific. They kept me up to date and were responsive to what I wanted. They also worked fast and accurately. The only issue I had was that they do not seem to have the timing down as to when they will arrive and how long things will take. We had a few delays but in the end it worked out"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.
