Customers say: Quality work

"Mike and his team, particularly his son, Mason, went far above and beyond to turn the exterior of our commercial space into a beautiful seating area. Beyond that, they coordinated with the proper inspectors and got all the pieces in place when the city forced us to replace sidewalks overnight and continued to take on every little project throughout the job that came up. I can't recommend them enough - from attention to detail to big picture plans, Mike was honest and communicative every step of the way, and always in our corner. Mason was out there doing other subcontractor's jobs because they weren't moving fast enough - and they brought the job in on schedule even through the city's laborious red tape. No bull, just hard work. These guys get it done."

"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."

"AJ HB took down 5 crepe Myrtle trees that were too near the house and sick with fungus. They ground the stumps, cut back some pampas grass and hauled away all the debris. Then I asked him to do our pine straw. He’s a hard worker, showed up when he said he would and gave us a fair price. Communication between us was very good and he’s super polite and aims to please the customer. Would definitely hire again."

"Hoyt Industrial Works was contracted to complete HDPE repair and install condensate lines at a hog farm in Virginia. Chase, the owner and operator, was very professional and was easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. The job was completed without a hitch and in a timely manner. We look forward to using Hoyt Industrial Works in the future."

"I couldn’t be happier with my experience with WR Land Services. Wade, the owner, was nothing but professional from start to finish. He showed up on time, fully equipped for the project, communicated clearly throughout, and his pricing was very fair. The finished project turned out even better than I could have imagined. I highly recommend Wade and WR Land Services!"

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.
