"We were having trouble with the melting snow and then rain water building up next to our foundation and knew we needed it fixed. We saw Echo Excavations signs locally so we decided it was time to call. Incredibly reasonable completion time and he has a mini excavator so he was able to do really precise work and you can tell he cares so much about what he does. He is already working on a second project for us to take down some trees and clear some land to open up our backyard for our two kids and are thrilled. My daughter loves when the owner Echo, comes with him she is the sweetest husky you will ever meet."

"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!"

"We had a wonderful experience working with DiVerdi Site Solutions. Our property had a very wooded and uneven side and back yard that felt unusable, and we weren’t sure where to begin. Rob was incredibly helpful from the start—he took the time to walk the property with us, explain what was possible, and help us identify the best way to accomplish our goals. He communicated clearly throughout the entire process and made sure every step was followed through exactly as planned. The transformation has been amazing. Rob cleared and excavated the heavily wooded side yard and turned it into a safe, open, and usable space where our kids can play. He also leveled off the back yard, which is now functional and enjoyable instead of sloped and difficult to use. Rob was professional, efficient, and respectful of our property. The quality of his work exceeded our expectations, and the end result has made a huge difference in how we use and enjoy our yard. I would highly recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

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.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

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.
