"Absolutely Outstanding Service! I hired Lane to handle trucking and dirt work to prep my yard for landscaping, and he went above and beyond in every way. From start to finish, his professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail was impressive. He didn?t just get the job done?he made sure it was done right. The crew was punctual, courteous, and clearly experienced. They tackled tough terrain, ensured proper grading, and even cleaned up better than expected. What really stood out was how proactive they were? offering helpful suggestions and making improvements I had not even thought of. It is rare these days to find a company that takes this much pride in their work. I am beyond pleased with the results and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing dirt work or site prep. Thanks again for exceeding expectations!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

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.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

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