"ENTECH did an oil tank removal for me which is a multi step process with the town and EPA and heavy equipment. It was buried in my front lawn with plantings all around it and oil left in the tank. In the middle, covid 19 shut down the procedure for two months. They handled all the paperwork and headaches. They couldn t have done a more professional job. They did a perfect job of staging the excavation so there was no damage to lawn and plantings. They handled all the delays, rescheduling, and paperwork. They kept their very fair price. I think ENTECH is probably the best contractor I ever hired."

"Rocky Ridge excavated a drainage trench and installed valves and piping. We are so relieved to have our sump discharge taken care of properly. Rocky Ridge was knowledgeable about the process and kept us informed of options all along the way. It is a pleasure to work with them."

"They do a very thorough and efficient job of mold remediation. Respectful of property, explanations offered about each stage of the project, helped with providing the best price on a dumpster rental, handled the demolition of a great deal of moldy wood and sheetrock in a clean and orderly manner, and treated the exposed wood and ceiling with mold inhibitor. I will be getting part of a bedroom treated as well. Every dealing with this company has been pleasant, caring, and positive."

"Pat fixed a badly leaking foundation in a 90 year old house. He followed up after the next rain storms and fixed the few new spots as well. His attention to detail is the best part. He wants to do the job right. Since then I have also had him do some extensive landscaping, building an access road to a part of the yard that had been unreachable, as well as excavating and pouring cement. Again, outstanding work and attention to detail. Hire him the job will be done right."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.
