"Trackline Construction has done many jobs for me, including the most recent of rebuilding a retaining rock wall that looks absolutely fantastic. He did quality work at a honest and reasonable price. I’d highly recommend Keighnen for any work that you need done. Give him a call. You’ll be happy you did."

"Iâ ve owned my home for 30 years and on occasion needed some electrician work done. Austin and Brady were the most efficient team Iâ ve hired for work like this. I had an entryway light on a sloped ceiling that was a story and half height changed out along with a dining room light and living room ceiling fan. They did all in less then 3 hours. Definitely will hire them again as I have more updates done to my home."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

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. 

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.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.
