The Matthews, NC homeowners’ guide to excavation services
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Time to get rid of that old chipped and crumbling walkway? Concrete removal costs can add up, but you have options to simplify the process. Learn more here.
Excavation costs $1,500 to $6,300 for most residential projects—but it depends on factors like the size of the area. This guide will help you plan a budget.
If you need to dig a trench, you might be tempted to do it yourself instead of hiring a pro. So, how much does it cost to rent a trencher? Let’s break it down.
A residential trencher will dig 1 foot to 6 feet deep, depending on the machine. Learn how deep a trencher will dig and which trencher to use.
Who installs trench drains? A local excavation company is best for the job, but a landscaper or plumber can also get it done. Here's how.
Trenches and ditches both involve excavation, but they serve different purposes. Unsure which one you need? Let’s compare a trench versus a ditch.
