"Wow. Waterworks. Where to begin. My family and I moved here from Washington State in 2019. We have a 100 year old house, and right before COVID my sewer pipes had issues and there was raw sewage filling my basement. I called my home warranty, Cinch, and they attached me to Waterworks. Bobby came out, assessed the damage, and they got to work. Then the guy running the operation, Joe, came on the scene. My basement freezer was unplugged, ruining a few hundred bucks worth of meat. I went out one day, smiled, asked if I could get them anything–usually that means something to drink, water. Joe said “Yeah, how ‘bout some Hoagies?” I thought it was a joke, but he was dead serious. Now if I say no, I’m the jerk. So lunch cost me 200 bucks. The day they were digging the trench to replace the pipe it was pouring. But they dug it anyway, destroying my whole yard. Joe said, don’t worry, lay some sod down–it’ll be cheap. They gave me options for run off to go to the curb–the dollar signs were already out of control. I ask what’s the cheapest, and he tells me to run it out the side for it to just go down to the street. At this point, being new to all this, that sounded fine. It wasn’t–it flooded my neighbor’s driveway every day. I call, Joe tells me to just bypass it so water goes out with the sewage. What I didn’t know was that it was illegal. To top it all off, the cleanout was put, sticking up, in the middle of my dirt yard–not close to the house, where it should have gone. He said not to worry, they’d cut it back in the spring and I could put a pond over it or bushes or something. Then it came time to get Cinch to pay me three of the TEN THOUSAND it cost me for the job. I had to nag and nag and nag before he said he was on the phone with them for hours, but he had made sure to get me the best price. The check, he said, would come to him and I could come pick it up there, but he’d have to charge me for billable hours. I call Cinch, they said they cut the check immediately and it would come to my house in a few days. I called good ‘ole Joe and called him on it. He said he thought I’d just want to tip him for such a bang up job they did, A few years roll by–I had the pipe cut back, ate the rest of the costs or did things myself. Years go by. 2023. I had to call about a different issue, and I was sent to Waterworks again. I lost it. I talked to the new manager/owner, can’t remember her name.. Said Joe was out, she was horrified, wanted to make it right, and maybe I’d want to give them a good review when all was said and done. Here’s what ‘right’ looked like: They did everything they were supposed to, but they would run a new pipe to the street. They would do it for a discounted grand. Again, lost it–I shouldn’t have to pay a dime. I had a friend, a contractor, come over and look after I told him about it. The pipe from basement to street is already there. There were leaves covering it. Now I want to sell the house, and I still have to deal with this. Yeah, they sure made everything right. If I could go negative, I would."

Excavation services FAQs
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.
