"100% satisfied! Repeat customer for life. I wanted a chain link fence with multiple, different sized gates installed around an oddly shaped piece of my yard, which is on a slope and the ground is pretty rocky. I called Ivan, who is probably the most polite person I've ever met, to come give me an estimate. His prices were fair, and they got the fence installed perfectly. I'm so pleased with my experience that I'm hiring them again for a larger, agricultural fencing project and plan to keep this company as my go-to contractor for other things that come up."

"They built a 1600 sq ft home for me and done a fantastic job from start to finish. Attention to detail and communication was the very best. They have also done some remodel work for me on my flip houses, also installed a new roof on a different home. I would highly recommended Darrin and his crew to anyone!"

"Hillside put in a retaining wall for my fire pit and pool area, hauled and spread gravel, and was able to haul the gravel for me as well. I have absolutely no complaints. Travis arrived when he said he would and completed the work on schedule. He also corrected a previous landscaping project (mine) which included correcting the fall from the house to the yard eliminating some low spots in my yard which helped with drainage. Hillside gave me a backyard I am very proud of. The quality of his work and the genuine commitment he brings to the project is refreshing. I absolutely recommend Hillside Excavating. Ronnie Hyde"

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.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.
