"they give you a fast estimate and they are very nice gentlemen . they work real hard to get the job done . they applied for a permit for us to put river rock in front of our cottage along the waters edge . added lots of sand and topsoil and leveled it out . the all seeded it and put straw down. then came back to install a black chain link fence around our front yard including three gates. When they said they would be on site they were their at the time they said. they left no mess behind . and their estimate was the price we paid. i recommend them for any type of escavating , landscaping projects you may have . they also have a tree service and they removed a big cottom wood and a old willow and took out the stumps and all that was a better price then any other estimates i got. If you got work to be done they are the company to call."

"Jordan and Emily did a great job planting our Emerald Green Arborvitae trees as a barrier between us and our neighbors. They worked hard in the sun for hours to make sure everything lived up to their standards. They also edged our driveway (which was really outgrown with weeds and dirt) and then leaf blew the entire driveway as well as hauling some tubs of garden rocks away for us. They are knowledgeable and dependable. 10/10 recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

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.
