"We have had 2 projects done this summer. After putting them off due to another company's high bid, we decided to try Clark and found them to be more willing to work within our budget. The job leader took time to understand our vision and the office communication was always immediate and timely. The crew was thoughtful and did a remarkable job of keeping the inevitable lawn damage to a minimum. After long hot days, they still made sure the work area was cleaned up each time. We are very happy with the outcome and highly recommend Clark."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.
