"Pat was exceptionally personable and was very easy to talk with when he came to look over areas that I would need snow removal, mainly my driveway and the area in the alley. Was please with the quote he gave me. I didn't rate the work quality because he was just here to look over the area for the future plowing needed."

"Dont judge a book by it's cover. It's hard to find a quality handyman -- especially in Northern Michigan. The folks at Clearwater, led by Tyler, quoted quickly and got the job done on time and according to all specified parameters. A small start up that needs a little front end polish -- but dont let that dissuade you from hiring. A quality finished product is what counts. They delivered this in spades. Not only would I hire them again, I sincerely hope to help them grow and will recommend them to the property owners I service in my business."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.
