"This company did a major landscaping overhaul at my camp on Silver Lake in Lee. Specific to this job was the removal of two large hemlock trees, felled by the winter winds and removal of several standing, dead, soft wood trees. This is a large, wooded lot that required a lot of cleanup and leveling, due to some years of inattention. Mike and his crew worked all day, every day until the substantial work involved was completed. It feels great to traverse around the lot on even terrain! The upgrade of the lot included the building up of the earth, grass seeds sown with the potential for a nice lawn, come spring. Seriously consider this company if you want a landscaping upgrade of your home or cottage done well and expediently! I want to mention, this week long undertaking was done at a competitive price!"

"A few weeks ago, W.N. Madden Excavation came out to re-level and resurface a badly rutted and deteriorated driveway at a residential property. Wyatt made quick work of the project, leveling the existing surface before resurfacing it with ¾inch ledge stone. The finished driveway complements the home and surrounding property beautifully, and the entire job was completed in less than an hour. Wyatt is professional, knowledgeable, and efficient, and the quality of his work speaks for itself. I highly recommend W.N. Madden Excavation to anyone looking for dependable service and high-quality excavation and site work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.

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 states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.
