With over 10 years of experience, we pride ourselves on reliability, excellent communication, integrity, and high-quality work. Our expertise in the trade ensures that we deliver exceptional results, and we are committed to keeping you well-informed throughout your project. We look forward to the opportunity to earn your business and trust!

"I had a previous contractor hired to do a major landscaping project. After three weeks and 3-6 people here on the days they were here they weren't even halfway complete, and after failing to report work through the code office, I let them go and hired Talbot & Son. Kyle and a one part time person were not only able to correct the major structural errors done by the previous contractor, but he completed the job in 8 working days. He kept me informed of every decision and gave me a heads-up when the topography would require us to modify the plan. He kept me informed with every step to make sure I understood the options. Along with painters I had earlier this spring, Kyle has the best work ethic of anyone I've ever hired. He is meticulous, honest, and extremely hard-working. This is the kind of person you want to hire for landscaping projects. Don't settle for second best. Hire Kyle Talbot if you want it done right."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The cost to drill a well ranges, but for a well that’s roughly 150 feet deep, you could spend approximately $5,500. However, prices can fluctuate substantially due to factors like geological conditions, local regulations, and variations in drilling methods. For a more precise quote tailored to your location, research local well-drilling professionals in your area.

Septic tanks are typically buried between four inches and four feet deep, depending on the property, the soil, and the size of the tank. When the septic tank is buried on the deeper end of this range, it may be harder for you to locate it on your own with a soil probe or just by observing the yard for signs of the tank. However, if you have trouble finding the septic tank, a pro will be happy to help you.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even if the project only involves grading or yard leveling. Excavation permits help protect the topography in your area and can avoid issues with poor drainage. In most cases, your excavation company will know whether or not permits are required and will even pull them and close them out for you before and after the job. You can also verify whether permits are necessary by calling your local building department and explaining the proposed project.

Silt fences should be trenched 8 to 12 inches deep to prevent sediment-filled water from escaping underneath. It also helps to anchor the fence during wet, windy weather. The silt fence fabric often has a red line to indicate the depth for digging. A good contractor will be familiar with the guidelines and regulations.

It is a common belief that excavation is easier or less costly when done in the summer or when the ground is not frozen. Seasons have little effect on when excavation can occur; however, inclement weather can prolong the duration of the job and potentially increase costs. For this reason, those in rainy climates may opt for seasons with milder weather.
