With over 7 years of hands-on experience, we specialize in forestry mulching, lawn clean-ups, minor and major grading, and tree stump grinding. Whether you need land cleared, your property reshaped, or your yard refreshed, we bring the equipment, skill, and precision to get the job done right. We’re committed to delivering efficient, high-quality results that improve your landscape and increase property value. Locally owned and operated, we take pride in reliable service and lasting outcomes tailored to your needs.

"I can’t say enough good things about Northern Edge Land Maintenance. I had a section of my property that was completely overgrown and unusable. There was brush, small trees, uneven ground, the whole nine yards. The owner, Derek, came in with all the right equipment and absolutely transformed it. He was professional, showed up when he said he would, and actually listened to what I wanted. The forestry mulching made a HUGE difference, and he even helped smooth out a rough section of my driveway that was washed out by the rain while he was here. It’s rare to find someone that works hard, communicates well, and clearly takes pride in what they do. I’ll definitely be calling him again for future projects. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. This company is the real deal!"

FAQs for excavation projects in Jaffrey, NH

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

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.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

Warm weather seasons like spring and summer are ideal times to excavate due to the ground being softer and easier to dig through. However, it is important to note that bad weather, like heavy blizzard conditions or torrential rainfall, can prolong the project length, increasing costs. That’s why it’s best to avoid excavating during winter or hurricane season, depending on your home’s location.

While completing an excavation project yourself is possible, we don’t recommend it. You’ll likely need to buy or rent the equipment necessary for the job. This equipment costs as $100 per hour or $2,200 weekly, increasing by as much as 50% for larger jobs. 

In addition, completing an excavating job yourself poses a safety risk. If proper marking hasn't occurred, you risk hitting buried cables and other critical piping, like gas and water lines. Additionally, if working with excavation equipment, you’ll need to steer clear of any overhead wires. Leaving this project to an excavating professional is best.
