"My backyard was flooding into my house and causing my basement to have minor leaks. My backyard needed to be graded/leveled. I also needed some window wells installed to shield the block windows. They also added stone and edging in a few spots. RPM Excavation was responsive and provided high quality service. I recommend RPM Excavation for people needing exterior solutions for their home."

"I would recommend Exquisite Touch to anyone in need of plumbing services. I had some work done this past Saturday, which included a full stack replacement along with a flange and cleanout. The technicians, Ken and Dylan, arrived well-prepared from the start. There was another worker who joined the team, but I didn’t catch his name. These men were professionals, and their work was of the highest quality. They even laid down protective coverings on the carpet before they began working. They informed me about the entire project step by step and ensured that the area was cleaned up before leaving. I will definitely be using this company again in the near future. Even the receptionist who took my call was professional and knowledgeable about the services offered. Thank you to the team at Exquisite Touch: Ken, Dylan, Sara, and the other worker whose name I missed. Dawn Detroit"

"Mike and Johnny did a great job! They gave a good quote and said they could start the following week. They did the job faster than quoted and were very meticulous with the details. They were even on their hands and knee wiping dust off our floors before they left each day. Already looking at hiring for another project we are working on!"

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.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

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

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.
