"Eric was right on point and identified the solution and scope of work very promptly. He is a very good communicator via text and in person. I thought his pricing was very fair. He worked to install gutter on my roof, drainage piping, and a trench drain on the side of my driveway to mitigate erosion. He rototilled, fertilized, and installed sod on my formerly eroded front lawn. The work came out fantastic and my neighbors keep complementing me on how nice my house looks now."

"I had Ken come out to look at a stump removal and I mentioned a retaining wall project I needed to get done. Ken took some quick measurements and then came back again late that afternoon with his team and took more precise measurements. That evening I had a quote that was comprehensive and fairly priced. We quickly agreed on the project and date. Ken, Rowan and Roger showed up on time and completed the job quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend McAdams Excavation and Landscaping for all your excavation, landscaping, and hard scaping needs. I am more than totally satisfied!!!"

"I posted on Angi and Matt responded immediately and was friendly and professional. He made an access entry from the original basement wall into my addition. There was little to no cleanup for me after! Job well done to Matt and Dickie. I highly recommend Smithtown Landworks."

"James is always easy to reach, shows up when he says he will, gets the job done (and I have dangerously steep driveway). Reliable, patient. My only "problem" is that the plow swings by and piles snow up against the garage door I need to leave from so I have to shovel that away before it freezes, then I get stuck. As long as I'm timely this is not that big of an issue and is manageable. Very pleased. This is my 2nd year with Littlewoods, and I plan on continuing to do business."

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.

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.

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
