"We had our sewage line collapse back in October and the company that replaced the line tore up our yard pretty hard. We hired RPM Excavation, LLC after getting a couple of quotes. They were not the least expensive but we're easy to work with and even came down to match the other price we had gotten. Matt was fantastic to work with. After they did the main grading, they had ended up leaving pretty big tracks in our yard. We called Matt because we didn't really have time to wait for it to pop back up as we were selling our house. He sent someone out to grade the tracks and we are super pleased with the end result. All around a great experience! Highly reccomend these guys!"

"We had a large office in Farmington Hills and they came in and dismantled large equipment, cubicles and desks and hauled it all away in time for us to be able to clean the site and turn in the keys."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.
