"We chose EarthWise to correct 45+ years of erosion re-grade widen a 100 -long S-shaped gravel driveway at our home. Included was design, excavation construction of a new 5 high dry-stack retaining wall. The whole EarthWise crew was skilled pros who did all parts of the job efficiently and with good cheer. Everyone worked well together and were easy for us the homeowners to deal with throughout the job. The results of last week's project were not only first-rate from an engineering standpoint, but also the aesthetics of their work is outstanding. Our rebuilt driveway is beautiful. Earthwise gives excellent value for the fees they bid and they do the kind of high-quality, heavy-machinery work that is far beyond any DIYer. Check out their website (https://earthwiseearthworks.com/) for photo samples of what they can do for you. We would recommend Dominic Dahl-Bredine and his EarthWise crew to anyone."

They were really easy to work with and walked me through the whole process with constant updates with each step performed. I would recommend them to anyone looking for quality work done in a timely and professional manner."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching.
