"Angelo and crew took down and rebuilt my 70 feet long 4 feet high retaining wall and steps. His guys worked very hard for a week and it looks nice. Just got it done before the snow and freeze. I would hire them again."

"The original project turned into an emergency project because of a storm that brought down two huge trees. Sage handled the removal of the debris of the fallen limbs and removed the trees. We were impressed with the crew. We will be contacting them for the original project in the near future. They left a very good impression."

"C3 was not the lowest cost, but they were the best. Josh and his team were punctual, worked all day, needed no supervision and did high-quality work. Josh provided some options for a better appearance and was fair in extra costs coming from excavating the slope. We are very happy with the wall and steps and even yard for summer entertaining. I recommend C3 and Josh for any hardscaping work."

"We worked with Michael on cleanup of our front and back yard of our new home. The crew spent about a day and half cleaning up the leaves accumulated from last year and potentially many years before, pulled out the sprawling vines and suckers and dead plants left vent the previous owner. The cost ended up being a bit more than the original quote due to the longer than expected hours and the amount of debris towed away. But we think it was a fair price. Good to finally see what we have on the property and can now start to plan the landscaping."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.
