"After purchasing my first home, I realized quickly that things were less than perfect. 3 months in, we were finding water intrusion in our crawl space. I had multiple companies come to inspect what was going on. I didn’t feel confident in their solutions, there was more to our situation. After feeling helpless, I read about David Gibson construction. Their testimonies really struck my interest. A local expert, that won’t take a job unless it’s done right, and always found the root of the issue. David came over, surveyed the entire property, inspected the crawl space / foundation, did soil samples, and sent over an entire report on what he believed was going on. We immediately hired him. Davis addressed the root cause and any additional repairs he found along the way. He and his crew were extremely professional, timely, and easy to work with.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

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

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. 

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.
