"I’ve hired Arc Electrical twice. The first time I needed them to re wire an outside shed and the second time I needed a dedicated breaker for a large piece of equipment. They did an excellent job both times! I have no trouble with either thing they worked on."

"Professionals!!! The best people to work with!!! I have hired them twice for 2 overgrown cutovers and both times they produced better than anticipated results, making ugly unusable land to beautiful useable land!!! They show up when they said they will or sooner and provide accurate and fair priced estimates, worth the wait if on waiting list. I will be hiring them a third time as soon as logistically possible!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.
