"I had hired Valley Excavating to remove all of the existing lawn on the back side of the house and replace it with newly graded topsoil and seed. David quickly responded to my call, he messaged when he couldn't make the appointment, showed up promptly when he said he would and completed the project in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend Valley Excavating for this type of project."

"I called Forever Excavating to get a quote on to remove several large oak trees near my house. They returned my call promptly and scheduled a time to come evaluate the work at a time that was convenient for me. They were on time, professional, knowledgeable and provided an estimate that I believe to be reasonable and thorough. The work was completed on time. I would gladly recommend them to anyone and will definitely be in contact for my future landscaping needs."

"For a 6000 sf lawn reconstruction from rocky excavation leftovers with 30 cy of loam. Marc fit me in next day. His equipment , skills, and attitude are top notch. In 5 hours he removed the bad excavated material, graded, prepped, and distributed the loam - ready to seed. He was excellent and very cost competitive."

"Brian and Cory took up my old brick walkway, re-graded the area (we had a significant ‘ponding’ issue), relaid the brick in the original, beautiful pattern, filled in the spaces between the bricks. Brian is easy to communicate with, responds promptly, shows up when he says he will. We’ve now hired him to replace steps in our backyard. Thank you Brian!"

"Duke's did a great job! They arrived at the job early and were very efficient at cleaning out the storage unit. They were professional and friendly. I was very happy to be using a local company, also. I would definitely hire Duke's again, and would highly recommend them to anyone needing any of their services."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

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.

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. 

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.

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.
