"These guys did a fantastic job, very professional and clean. They were able to renovate both floors on my two family home within my budget and in a timely fashion. Handled everything from top to bottom, full clean out, gut bathrooms and kitchen, completely transformed the place. Couldn’t be happier with the finish product. Would recommend and hire again!"

"Generator would not start and if it did start, it would not run for long. Disassembled the carburetor, examined it and reassembled it. Engine starts and runs. All in his magic touch I guess. But I am very glad I now have a generator that runs since a storm is due to arrive within hours."

"The team at Rodenhiser is highly recommended. I hired them to fill my yard over the process of about 6 months (we lost count on the yardage of fill, but it was probably around 2000yards). This only stopped when it was too wet to drive the trucks out to dump fill. After the fill was done, Rodenhiser loamed and graded my lawn the following spring. Throughout this time, I found that I was excited to see the truck drivers, equipment operators, and Bill Rodenhiser each time they stopped by to dump fill or move earth. I made the comment to my friends/family/coworkers that sometimes I think that Bill is more excited to landscape my yard than I am! I also spent a little time working with Bill on my yard, so I got to know him a bit. Bill works very hard, wants to get the job rolling immediately, and is very responsive to texts or changes in schedules. My yard now is unbelievable, far beyond what I thought I had hired Rodenhiser Excavating for and I will continue to be their client. My friends will likely be Rodenhiser’s client in the future. I have put some photos up of the before, during, and after"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.
