"I highly recommend this company for any project you might need done. Our lot had to be cleared of 100 pine trees before the construction of our dream home could begin. They have done an amazing job in every phase of the construction, They have excellent work ethics and have kept in regular contact with us to make sure that everything is exactly how we want it to be, even when I changed my mind All of the subcontractors have done a great job in a very timely manner. They are courteous and professional, and truly seem to enjoy their work. Every detail of our new home is exactly how we wanted it and better, both inside and out. Except for a few minor things that I wanted added we knew exactly how much each thing would cost including the cost of my wants before doing them. We were right on budget. They told us that they built our home as though it were their own home. I rate them a 5 in every category and recommend them for any job, large or small"

"Tony had done some clean up in our yard in the spring and did an excellent job. We asked him to redesign an area in the front yard that was pretty wild. He had suggestions but respected our requests as well. The finished project was done in a professional and timely fashion. The work is well done and priced competitively. We will definitely keep Tony at the top of our list for landscaping projects."

"I had MGT Enterprise to build me a 850 ft gravel driveway, installed 2 drain tiles for the water drainage, cleared off 2 acres and completely graded the land for my house to be built on, and cleared the land for my septic field. They called around and found the most reasonable prices for the job. When the owner gave me an estimate, everything was itemized just as I asked so I could understand what was being spent. MGT Enterprise was very responsive and gave me their professional opinions and described how they would perform all the work when they gave me a quote. Whenever I had questions, they immediately had answers even if I thought they were ridiculous, they never made me feel like I didnt know anything. They were very prompt with job timing and kept me informed through the whole process. They would not leave the job until I came out and they made sure I was 100% satisfied. I would recommend them to anyone who needs any excavation or work in that area."

"This companies customer service and speed of quoting the job was spot on. I think the pricing was pretty good, comparatively. Very nice people and were on time. Others were hours late or never showed back up to do the job. This job has not been done yet due to very heavy rain, but they have been out here to check the ground a couple of times so they can start as soon as the soil will allow. Any company that takes that time has got to be good. I will updated when completed."

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.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).
