"I am very impressed with Peter and his team at Bridger Construction. They are hard working, responsible, and very thorough. Peter is an excellent communicator-very open and honest. His knowledge and experience with construction and land development are evident in the projects we have underway. We started with several excavation projects and are now moving forward to complete my House and Barn. Itâ s a pleasure to work with Peter and his team."

"The guys were great. They were able to finish all of the tasks and a few more. Their pricing was fair and communication was very good. I was out of town while most of the tasks were done. If something came up they reached out and they had a solution. We are planning a bath remodel and they have already submitted a drawing. Their work is great and they’re easy to work with! When was the last time you said that about a contractor? Strongly recommend"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

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

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.
