"Joel did a great job turning some raw undeveloped land into a beautiful up hill driveway. The job involved rebuilding a stone wall, tree stump excavation, sculpting over 250 yards of soils into gentle slopes and finishing the job by spreading gravel for the new driveway. Joel is a master at working an excavator and has excellent work ethics. I am looking forward to having him back to do the next round of work on my property."

"My wife and I hired Marc Curtis to take large tree stumps out and grade our backyard. Marc did an outstanding job and my wife and I couldn’t be happier with the end result. Marc was very thorough from start to finish. We spoke about what was going to happen throughout every step of the project. I couldn’t recommend him enough. If you’re thinking of hiring someone, you will not be disappointed by the excellent work Marc Curtis will provide. Thank you to Marc and the rest of his crew!"

"Rafael and his crew did an outstanding job getting our yard ready for the winter. The yard is spotless, they trimmed plants, even cut grass that we hadn’t asked them to do. Fast, very efficient, and good people to work with."

"Rodolfo and his crew were great to work with, and his crew and associates did a fine job on our upstairs rental apt. Work included insulation, new windows on the sunporch, repairs of water damage in the bathroom, painting of the entire apt (colors chosen by Rodolfo - the place looks great!), and other work as needed. We are glad we found Pro Performance Construction to do the job!"

"We hired FCS for a basement wall right next to our stairs. The stone wall had sections of concrete patches that were crumbly, and some areas started to leak water. FCS came down for a one-day job and used a stucco coating for the whole wall. We were a little surprised by the price they offered for the job since it really was only stucco they applied, but we were pleased with the job they did."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

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.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.
