"

They arrived precisely on time.  They were very polite and willingly did everything that we asked.  We had some containers so that the oil remaining in the tank could be reclaimed and we requested them to fill these containers.  I watched them work and they were very pleasant  and did not mind my observing.  They asked me if I wanted to keep any of the parts that they removed.  All the work was done efficiently and carefully.   They  left the work area very neat and clean when they finished.  The area at the front of the house where the fill and vent pipes  was completely  and neatly covered without any disruption of the landscaping.  We were very happy with the way the job was completed.

"Jared was awesome he totally delivered everything he quoted and then some!!! His pricing was fair and as questions came up during the construction phase he expertly problem, solved and offered reasonable solutions. I would highly recommended DAGS excavation For a wide variety of projects. Due to a septic system/repair my backyard was a mess and he came in and fixed the irrigation system regraded the yard installed a new backyard patio and a front patio and hydro seeded the lawn with great care and expertise. I would highly recommend Jared/DAGS excavation for any project you might have for landscaping, Hardscapes irrigation, etc. !!!"

"You hear these horror stories of people who take your money and get back to you whenever they feel like it, but this was the complete opposite. They gave me a clear breakdown of costs, told me when they were going to start, and when they were going to be done, and did exactly what they said they would do at exactly the budget they said they'd do it at. I honestly had no idea how they were going to demolish a shed, move a couple of trees, set up a retaining wall, and re-create my front and back lawns in, like, a week. But they did, and it turned out wonderfully."

"ENTECH did an oil tank removal for me which is a multi step process with the town and EPA and heavy equipment. It was buried in my front lawn with plantings all around it and oil left in the tank. In the middle, covid 19 shut down the procedure for two months. They handled all the paperwork and headaches. They couldn t have done a more professional job. They did a perfect job of staging the excavation so there was no damage to lawn and plantings. They handled all the delays, rescheduling, and paperwork. They kept their very fair price. I think ENTECH is probably the best contractor I ever hired."

"They showed up when they said they would both to do the estimate and the job. Wait time from accepting the quote to actually doing the work was only a couple of weeks and price for the job was fair. They have good equipment such as a bucket truck and good sized chipper and were able to handle some large trees along the driveway.. job was completed in 1 day and final clean up was good. I would definitely use this company again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

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.
