"The project was far more involved than just septic repair. Our house was built in the fifties and had serious drainage and grey water problems as well. Darin was able to make the repairs, grade the yard and install new drainage lines for the gutters as well as replace the old pipes and clean out the septic system. It was a huge project that required a wide range of skills including digging new lines, tree removal, plus excavation and grading. We were very pleased with the work and the results. It was also great watching the dynamics with Tripp and Rider his two sons who were both hard working, followed directions well and always hustled. We have since hired DTR for other projects including more grey water lines and grading of our cabin , building a boat ramp at the creek at our campsite and then building an entire addition including a ll aspects of building a retaining wall and construction of our commercial kitchen including everything from electrical and plumbing to interior walls using FRP panels on the walls and ceiling which is a difficult project to do correctly as it has no nails or screws and is done with adhesive. All projects have been extraordinarily well done and we have been very happy with the work and the follow up afterwards. Each of these projects deserves its own review. I think the best review is when you hire them again. Highly recommended"

"Meridian Roofing Solutions contacted a few excavating companies for some dirt work we needed on a roofing project. Apex Excavation was the first to respond and provided an accurate quote. I was most impressed by how they communicated to us and understood the project. I would definitely work with them again and recommend them for any dirt work needed."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

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.

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

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.
