"Hired Forever Excavating after getting several quotes. The job was to prep for a large patio, excavation for a French drain, and to do some re-grading in my backyard. They offered very competitive pricing and are a small, local, veteran owned and operated company so I decided to go with them and I couldn't be happier with the results. The project was completed on time and on budget. My family and I look forward to enjoying our new yard and will absolutely be hiring Forever Excavating for any future projects we may need accomplished."

"I recently hired Triple 7 Excavation to handle the site work and preparation for my new patio, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and clearly took great pride in their work.
They arrived on time, communicated clearly throughout the process, and made sure every detail was done right—from grading and drainage to the final cleanup. The crew worked hard, respected my property, and delivered exactly what they promised (and then some). The patio area looks fantastic and was completed on schedule.
It’s not easy to find a contractor who combines skill, honesty, and great customer service, but Triple 7 Excavation absolutely does. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality excavation or site work done the right way."

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.
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.
You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.
