Dawson's Excavation and Utility Services is a diverse and multi-dimensional company. Fully insured and licensed. We pride ourselves with professionalism, dedication and quality. Dawson's provides many services to fulfill the requirements of any project. Whether you are a private resident or a commercial property owner.

"Worst experience and lack of professionalism ever. Never seen such poor quality of work. Two month job took almost 7 months. Never came back to my house to fill hole they left under foundation where rodents gained access or return the gravel back there. Used the wrong materials on grading the roads so they're already sinking. Ruined my driveway. Scraped away the stone dust and crushed stone to gain access to side yard. Every time it rains, cheap road sand pours into my driveway, further eroding it, and draining several inches of this sand into my flower beds. Apparently, the $300 it would cost Jake to come back and return the driveway to its original state, is just not important enough to him. I hope it ends up costing him his reputation because I plan on leaving reviews everywhere including social media. Maybe you'll learn something from this experience."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

It takes two to three hours to trench 100 feet with a mechanical trencher or 10 to 12 hours if digging with a shovel. The total time to dig a trench depends on the depth, width, soil type, terrain, trencher type, and your level of experience. Digging in clay or rocky soil takes longer than soft ground.  

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

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.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.
