Customers say: Quick response

"They did a great job on multiple area project that included excavation, grading, drainage and septic tank installation. Rick, Brad and Allen were all professional, friendly and real pleasure to work with. Rick was able to perform very precise operations with the excavator and ensured everything was cleaned up and looking good before they left. Would recommend them to anyone in their service area and would consider them for any projects of my own in the future."

"This is a terrific landscaping company. Work included removal of huge ice-damaged shrub, transplanting of an 8-foot tall Burning Bush, total refurbishing of two flower beds and construction of flower bed wood boxes and installation of a split-rail fence. All well-done. Great job with cleanup and disposal of removed shrubs. Bob and his team are very knowledgeable, skilled and easy to work with. They accomplished the Burning Bush transplantation when I wondered if or how it could be done. A top-notch outfit."

"Jeff and his crew did a fantastic job installing a walking path with granite steps to our dock. It’s on very steep terrain and had difficult access. Multiple other contractors passed on the job because of the challenges. Jeff worked two weeks straight and got the job done on time and on budget. Very happy and would absolutely recommend him."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.
