"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."

"I hired atlas earthworks to put a driveway and parking lot in on a remote piece of land I purchased. He was easy to commute with and did a great job. I even added some work to the job and he finished ahead of schedule. He has nice equipment and an extremely positive attitude. It was a breath of fresh air to have an honest contractor."

"Terry did a great job repairing our concrete paver walkway. He gave us a fair price and came on short notice. He and a helper showed up on time, finished the work on time, and cleaned up the work area. The quality of his work is top notch. Heâ s a real craftsman Iâ d highly recommend to anyone."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

The cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.
