"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

"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."

"We had a serious erosion problem since our home was built on the side of a hill. We had a Generac home generator installed with a 250 gallon LP gas tank and an underground pipeline buried in our front yard. The first time it rained, the runoff dug up the pipeline and half the tank. Ryland from Ridgeview designed a plan of action costing $3,000 less than the other proposal. He completed the project in a relatively short period of time. The problem was solved."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

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.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.
