"Chris is a man of his word. He came and gave me a quote right away, was flexible with what I wanted, helped me with suggestions and most of all- he showed up when he said he would and finished on time. His work exceeded our expectations and the quality of work was top notch. He is a wizard with an excavator! I would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thanks Chris!"

"This was the first time I hired their services they did a wonderful job the men were courteous, polite, and willing to listen to what I needed I would recommend Chris and his boys to do any landscaping job you need I would definitely hire them again. I had another estimate from another landscaping company. They were three times higher than this company and this company did a great great job. Very happy."

"The attention to detail of the work was top rate. We had three sink holes in our yard that they took care of for us, as well as spreading loam for us to start a lawn in the spring. I very highly recommend McAdams Excavation."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.
