"Brandon and his team built a beautiful wooden 12 x 16 deck around part of my new above-ground swimming pool, turning my pool area into an oasis. They also built a wonderful 8 x 8 foot hut for my barbecue grill. It has a safe metal roof and sits adjacent to my swimming pool, allowing me to grill hotdogs and hamburgers right there at the pool for hungry swimmers. In addition to the deck and grill hut, Brandon also professionally rebuilt my deteriorating 4-stair stairway that joined my back deck to the backyard ground level. He also built a lovely, curvy, cool-touch sidewalk joining my back deck, grill hut, and pool deck. In addition, Brandon ran an electric circuit from my main house circuit breaker panel out to the grill hut, swimming pool deck area, and the pump filter motor. I could not be happier with how everything turned out and I would no hesitate to hire him again. Biloxi Bob"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

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.
