"Tyler did a great job demoing my old front porch, and building a new one. Tyler made some initial miscalculations that I could not immediately correct because I was in the hospital. When I got out and said that the porch wasn't exactly how I wanted it, he partially rebuilt it for me. The porch ended up exactly as I wanted it. He did a great job. Tyler is a skilled professional."

"Our driveway was like a “washboard” around a steep curve. Ridgeview came out the next day & did an exceptional job spreading & leveling out the gravel. We are very pleased with this company. We would definitely hire them again!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.
