"John was terrific to work with. We had a radiator blow out on us and not only was he responsive and quick to come evaluate the problem but he was also quick to schedule the repair. In between we realized we had a running toilet and a leaking faucet and it was no problem for him to fix those while he was on site fixing the radiator. He was super friendly and his prices are fair. The first plumber I called wanted to charge me $350 just to full out the COI! No craziness like that with John. I will definitely use him again for future plumbing needs."

Excavation & Foundation Contractor, Located in Yonkers, Servicing Westchester & 5 Borough's. Specializing in Excavation, SOE, Rock Removal, Trucking, Concrete Foundations.

"KNR took down a compromised tree on steep compromised slope, with no way to bring in big machinery, to save my house after a major washout. We are continuing to work together to stabilize the slope and keep the house from collapsing. After a major storm (Ida leftovers), the 8'-high retaining wall 20' behind my house became a 20'-high sheer sand slope a few feet from my house. I was desperate, and no other excavation contractors would even answer their phones. With KNR, communication was fast and clear, both by phone and over email. Keith came out to look the day after we called them; had an itemized proposal for me next morning; and came out to take down the tree that afternoon - we needed it gone before the forecast high winds arrived in the evening. Thanks to KNR, I still have a house - if the tree blew over, it could easily take a corner of the house with it. We are continuing to work with them on excavating work to stabilize the slope behind my house. Keith had better ideas for emergency slope repairs than some of the engineers I talked to, and gave me much better prices than others, both for the tree work completed and for the excavating work to come. When the tree job took much longer than expected, there was no mention of extra pay. Many other builders rush their work, but Keith takes the time to think through what he is doing, to make sure he is doing it right and doing it safely. I am deeply grateful to KNR for quickly and efficiently coming to my rescue in a major emergency."

"This review is long overdue! We had the pleasure of working with Robert on renovating our new house from top to bottom almost a year ago, and we are still thrilled with the results. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to quality has created a deep trust in Robert. He is top of our list and we have recommended him and his team to all our family and friends. We knew he would be a good fit from the initial consultation. Roberto managed everything with care and great attention to detail. Robert and his team executed our vision so well and everyone who has been over have showered us with compliments at how good everything looks. Throughout the renovation Roberto maintained excellent communication, keeping us updated at every stage. They were always punctual, courteous, and willing to answer any questions we had. His team was respectful of our home and ensured that the worksite was clean and organized at the end of each day. The quality of workmanship has proven to be outstanding and the custom work will last us for years to come. Another impressive aspect of working with Roberto and team was their ability to stay on schedule and within budget. They provided a clear timeline at the beginning of the project and adhered to it, completing the work on time without any unexpected costs. Even after the project was completed, Roberto continued to provide exceptional customer service and followed up to ensure we were satisfied with the work. We highly recommend Roberto to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and professional contractor. Our new house is beautiful and suits us perfectly thanks to Roberto and his team!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

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.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Generally, a trenchless sewer line is worth the cost. If your old system needs replacement, trenchless sewer repair or replacement can save you thousands on excavation costs. Every homeowner’s situation is different, but this method is definitely worth it in a lot of cases.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.
