"100% hands down best decision ever going with Lewis and son's. Nathen who is the owner is the one I spoke with and who actually done the work himself. You could definitely see the pride he took in his work and care he took with respecting my wishes when it came to the rest of the property he is definitely highley skilled and very good at what he does! To top it all off he beat every single other bid i had!!! His initial bid was a little higher but he said he would match my lowest estimate and knock 10% off omg unbelievable needles to say I couldn't believe it and it was definitely the best decisions I've ever made!!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

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.
