"They responded to my request to look at my project immediately, and came to my house the same day to look at the job. They were able to do my project within 2 days, after I spoke to him. it wasnâ  t a huge project but it was urgent because I had water leaking into my basement from the rain. They Excavated around a cinderblock foundation, put on waterproofing on the cinderblock in the same day, they came back the next morning (Christmas Eve!) And backfilled the dirt and finished in a couple hours. They cleaned up everything beautifully when they were done. They did a Great job, and I couldnâ  t be happier with him.

Customers say: Quick response

"We had a great experience with this excavation project. The work was completed professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. The team was reliable, hardworking, and respectful of the property throughout the entire job. Even though it was a small project, they treated it with the same level of care and professionalism as a much larger job. Communication was clear, the work area was kept organized, and everything was completed as expected. I?m very happy with the results and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for quality excavation work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

Almost any kind of home can have a wine cellar or cabinet installed. You’ll need an area where a concrete floor can be put in, along with the necessary insulation, climate control, and ventilation systems. If you think of yourself as an aspiring sommelier, an underground wine cellar may be ideal, but it will cost significantly more. 

What you choose to install really depends on your budget and how many bottles you’re looking to store.
