"We live in Utah and have owned property in Independence for years. With the overgrowth rate, we hired a person to keep it cleared. He did marvelous until ill with serious complications. Tried Angi several times to find someone to take over. After no offers, we gave up over a year ago. Recently, Independence City sent us a written overgrowth notice. Angi was tired again. Within an hour was contacted by Solid Ground Land & Excavation Services, LLC. Their representative was attentive, interested and helpful. He visited the land that day and sent a bid that evening. The bid was reasonable and we contracted this company the next day. Less than a week later, the job is done and photos provided to show "Before" and "After" conditions of the land. Excellently done! Further, this company has agreed to assist us to find a new person to do the ongoing maintenance. Could not be more pleased with the outcome. Thanks to Hap and to Angi!!"

Welcome to Crackology, where we specialize in providing expert foundation repair and waterproofing services for homeowners who need reliable solutions to protect their most valuable asset – their home. With years of experience in the industry, Crackology is committed to delivering high-quality, long-lasting repairs, and top-tier waterproofing solutions. We pride ourselves on being the trusted partner you can rely on when your home is facing foundation issues, moisture problems, or structural concerns.

 At Crackology, we don’t just fix foundations; we restore your peace of mind. Foundation issues are more than just repairs—they’re a matter of safety and security. Our mission is simple: to provide dependable, long-lasting foundation repairs and waterproofing solutions that protect what matters most, your home.

"I landed upon Crackology at the right time and I was very thankful for it. I had been working with a previous concrete company for wellnover 6 months. Not only did this company consume a lot of my time, money was wasted and the job was left incomplete. I was left trying to figure out how my excavation and foundation was going to to be completed before the winter kicked in placing my unfinished basement at risk of shifting and potentially more costs! They also offered financing as an option even though I did not need it. Crackology was able to not only fix what the previous concrete company left incomplete but gave an expected time of completion with a breakdown of expected costs. Very thorough with assessing what I desired for my basement (excavation, new beams, waterproof barrier), they did not leave me wondering when the job would be complete, and most importantly, kept me in the loop alongside each step of completion. I highly recommend them if you need concrete work and foundation work completed."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

The cost to dig a trench ranges from $400 to $1,200 per 100 linear feet, depending on the soil, depth, and width. Plan to spend $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching (it’ll be on the higher end if you have rocky soil). Renting a trencher costs $100 to $250 per hour, depending on the type of trencher. 

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.

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.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.
