"Hired EZ excavation for site, prep work and sewer line installation. ERIC was prompt and professional with reasonable prices. Everything went great. I would recommend him for any project."
"They did an excellent job and I continue to use them. They are very knowledgeable and they were very responsive with solutions. We would highly recommend them to anyone."
"Roger called me on Sunday, offered a free estimate and brought the needed equipment without any obligation. The pricing was very reasonable. We asked Roger to proceed with the work, which was accomplished faster than I could have imagined. One stump was very difficult as the tree had grown over a very large rock, but Roger managed it very competently. The wood chips were moved to a location of our choosing. How rare to have someone call, come to an appointment on time, provide a professional service all on the same day. Thank you Roger!"
"They did a great job, they were on schedule and budget. They would answer any questions I had and were very nice to deal with. I would use the again."
"The owner is a first responder like myself, I couldnâ t find anyone to clear my land but with his busy schedule he was able to fit me in very fast, very affordable pricing, and extremely professional. I plan on using him for my future lots as well."

"This was a complex project with a lot of moving parts. Several thousand square feet of patio, complicated pool coping and a significant amount of reconstruction. The land I gave Carl to work with was ugly and unstable. I give Carl an A for time and price because of the value he brings to the table. Not because he's the cheapest or the fastest sprinter. Some significant challenges materialized over the course of the job that added time and cost to the project. The great thing is Carl rolled with the punches, reacted fast, didn't compromise quality, and never asked for more money. This was not an easy piece of land to work with. A 40 year old pool patio on shaky foundations. His foreman/mason Eddie is the only person I trust to do anymore work on my hardscape/landscape. His ability, attention to detail and work ethic is unquestionable. Carl brings 30 years of experience to the table; great design ideas, flexibility, problem solving, vision..........value!! Additionally, Carl has a fantastic network of partners that are just as reliable. I would be happy to provide a reference to all serious buyers. "
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.
Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.
Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000,depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel.

Yes, trenchers can go through gravel. Gravel is made up of smaller, softer rocks that certain trenchers are able to cut through. Just be sure to use a rock wheel trencher or chain trencher, both of which are made to cut through rocky landscapes and gravel pathways without dulling the teeth or chain.
