"Fast efficient professional and very personable. Mark and his crew removed 200 gallons and cut up an underground fuel oil tank inside the foundation of my home.In a crawl space less than 40" high. Not only did they do it quickly, but there was no residual oil or smell. Look no further! Very reliable and priced fairly."

"Beautiful work and attention to detail on my remodel of an early 1900’s home in Cambridge. They did a unique stomp texture on the ceiling with a knockdown that resulted in a beautiful marble design. I have had a lot of compliments on this. The driveway and sidewalks were over excavated sand replaced and compacted. It has been a year now with no frost heave. Very happy with the results."

"The team was prompt and very detailed, was able to pivot and suggest little changes that improved the overall look. They reconstructed a soffit and several bathroom and bedroom walls to enhance the appearance. I asked for non textured ceilings and they are flawless. Great communication throughout the job…I will rehire again in the future!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

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

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.
