"This is a terrible company. Do not hire. David Davis dumped 40-50 yards of dirty fill instead of loam. It is filled with bricks and large chunks of concrete. He will not return to remove and finish the job. After numerous calls and promises, he has failed to finish. My basement floods do to poor grading. Do not hire!"

"I was extremely satisfied with the quickness of responding to my inquire for quote. Upon meeting Jose he impressed me with his willingness to explain my options, he patiently listened to my concerns and answered all my questions regarding a huge issue regarding a previous contractor, which Jose assured me they would be able to correct. Upon agreeing to a price, he and his foreman visited the following day to review the plans and the crew arrived two (2) days later. During the project there were a couple of small hiccups however there were quickly addressed and resolved. Through the entire process from getting the quote to completion Jose always made himself available. Another amazing fact is, the project was completed AHEAD of schedule only because the crew worked tirelessly. I have one more project next year and Jose and his crew are the people I will depend on to get it done correctly. "

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

There is no standard depth, but typically, septic tanks are buried between 4 inches and 4 feet underneath the earth’s surface. There are a few factors that will determine your tank’s depth, including the height of your bedrock, the distance between your home and the tank, and the depth of your main sewer line.

Silt fences should be trenched 8 to 12 inches deep to prevent sediment-filled water from escaping underneath. It also helps to anchor the fence during wet, windy weather. The silt fence fabric often has a red line to indicate the depth for digging. A good contractor will be familiar with the guidelines and regulations.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

It all depends on the scope of the project. A trencher can certainly save time and energy, but you might not need to dig that deep in the first place. Aside from the depth of the trench, the quality of the soil matters. If it’s light, soft soil, you might try a shovel first. However, if the soil is rocky and hard or there are obstructions in it, like tree roots, a machine trencher might be the better option.
