"Of all the contractors I have worked with, Damien of South Shore Excavation is by far the best contractor I have ever worked with. As you can imagine, the removal of Invasive Bamboo is not an easy task and most landscapers/contractors (I had 3 refuse to do the work) would not touch it, or provide an astronomical quote preventing any possibility to proceed. This was not the case w/ Damien of South Shore Excavation. He came in, assessed the project as a whole and provided an honest attainable quote to proceed. He was on site and stayed until the project was completed above satisfaction. His attention to detail and commitment was as if it was his own property. The re-grading and lawn preparation was meticulous as was the bringing in of clean loam with a compost mix. I would recommend South Shore Excavation to anyone."

"Sean called me back within 2 minutes of e-mailing him to contact me. He was courteous and professional, and the cost he quoted me was reasonable for the job. He called before he came the next day and he arrived within the 30 minute time frame he quoted. He did a thorough job of snowplowing our driveway and I would not hesitate to use him again."

"Tyler Grey was professional. He arrived on time for the estimate visit. He told me that he had insurance to cover his crew. As we walked the property, he paid strict attention to what I was saying. When he came to do the job, we again walked the property. He had notes from his prior visit that he referred to. He asked me more questions. His crew was courteous and very nice. They worked right along and got the yard done. It was a mess. Itâ s a pleasure to look out my windows now."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
