"Jake and his team were awesome to work with and they'd be the first I'd recommend for any excavation job big or small. He was able to make our vision for a backyard into a reality and worked tirelessly (weekends included) to make it happen. Jake was on time, honest and dependable, which is unheard of in the current market!"

"Excellent job by John and Jacob! They responded so quickly and actually completely the job on the same day of the initial contact. They were professional and very thorough. Everything was completed in less than two hours. We could not be more pleased and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to seal coat their driveway."

"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."

"Showed up on time. Accommodated a small space work area. Cleaned up and even used a blower to clean up the lawn area. Had 2 maples that towered over our house, down in not time at all. It was a pleasure to work with them."

"We had a pretty big project, removing an old camp roof and building a new roof rotated 90 degrees, and adding a loft area. We were very happy with Andrew and his crew. They really go the extra mile to make sure everything is done right - they don't cut corners and take pride in their work. They installed new windows in the front and even used Windex to wipe off their finger smudges! Price was very good, and they're good, honest guys to work with. Very pleased!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

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.
