"Highly recommended! Shane talked with us as well as walked our property giving us step by step direction on what he was going to do As well as his input and advice on what to use, placement of house, driveway etc! Shane and Jared started and finished doing exactly what was needed in a great timely manner. Their work was detailed and neat and we could not be happier!! We will definitely be reaching out to Shane and his crew for any further work we will need at our property! Thanks again!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.
