"Hired them and they started the job the next day since they already had the equipment here, which saved me a lot of money. The job was done by the 2nd day which would have taken me weeks to do! Craig was very professional and continued to check in with me, throughout those 2 days to make sure they were doing exactly what I wanted. Thank u to Craig and his team! I look forward to calling him soon for the next projects!!"

"I hired HH&E to clear some land and lay some gravel for my driveway. Honestly it was a great experience the guy is hands down one of the most cordial and professional contractors I've ever hired. Very good communication he let me know what was going on progressively and he got the job done in a very timely manner. I would absolutely hire again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

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

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

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.

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.
