"You wonâ t find a more honest, more professional or more skilled excavator/operator than Matt Mello, owner of South Shore excavation. Matt has now done two big jobs for me, the first being to rip out the old floor in our 4-car garage and install a new floor, the second being to dig up/expose and waterproof the garage foundation. In both cases, Mattâ s pricing was extremely fair, he delivered 100% on his promises, finished the work in a timely manner and left an immaculate job site every day. I really canâ t recommend Matt Mello & South Shore Excavation highly enough. If youâ re looking for a true professional who does what he says heâ s going to do, when he says heâ s going to do it, look no further."

"Westley and his crew are professional, courteous, efficient and reliable. I had several companies come out and quote our excavation project. Most either never got back to us with quotes or told us the scope of work would take weeks/months to complete. Westley not only gave me a quote on the spot, but started later that week. In two days, they had the work completed that others told us would take weeks to finish. Aside from the initial excavation and land clearing, he also handled our foundation prep, facilitated our foundation being poured and did the final finish work (getting our driveway re-pitched, installing a run-off drain, etc). If you're looking to hire a company who do what they say and do it professionally, you owe it to yourself to hire Dorego construction. Thank you again, guys!"

"Cameron showed up right on time, measured and marked off the site and went to work. Excavated the site, spread and leveled 5 yards of 3/4? stone. The Reeds Ferry foreman complimented Cameron?s work. I have more work to do and Cam and his excavator can do the heavy lifting. Highly recommend Cameron."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.
