"Nathan did a great job! I was called out of town so only able to explain what I needed done over the phone. I am very picky about how I want things completed -- I was pleasantly surprised when I came home to find everything done perfectly! Nathan showed up when he said he would, confirmed what I was asking and completed the work within the time frame we discussed, for the price he quoted! I have more work of the same that will need done in the Spring. I will be calling Lewis & Sons to handle the job!"

"Nik is probably the best contractor I have ever worked with. Prior to hiring him through HomeAdvisor, I was working with a different contractor who had mis-measured and ended up under-estimating our project. This job was a community project on a tight budget, and funds had already been collected based on the initial estimate. Not only was Nik willing to work within our budget, but he was also able to turn our project around in record time. His work was excellent. Basically, it is flawless. Not only that, but Nik is knowledgable and desire to please gave us great confidence in selecting him for the job. Without hesitation, I would recommend Nik for any excavating work you might need and he will be the guy I hire for future jobs of this nature. Thank you, Nik, for your excellence!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.
