"I dealt with John and Dave. They were always very punctual, the proposal was specific it clearly stated what they would be doing, the size of the septic tank, overflow, main line and the cost. It was all done to code. They were polite, responsive and answered all my questions even after the work was completed, I wish I would have realized or been told how extensive the area that was disturbed would be. I would have removed more of the plants."

"We were very,very pleased with Brian your local handyman. He repaired our deck quickly and very inexpensivly. There were others that came and made the job appear to be much larger and asked thousands instead of hundreds. Have already recommended him to a friend who also hired him. Very, very good choice."

"In 2010, we changed our beat-up deck to a new patio and used Napolitano Brothers for the upgrade. The patio came out better than expected and completed within 1 1/2 weeks (despite several days of rain storms). In 2016, we decided to expand our patio to include a bar/cooking area for grilling and a fire-pit to enjoy the cooler days. Without a doubt, we returned to Napolitano Brothers and they did a fabulous job. The work was seemless (as if we had the work done in 2010) and completed within about a week's time. Both jobs worked out perfectly and my wife and I highly recommend Napolitano Brothers. They have decades of experience and don't overbook jobs so they complete timely and with precision."

"I hired A-1 Tank Removals and Installations to replace my leaky oil tank located in my basement. A-1 is a 3 generation family owned business. Service was excellent. Joe and his son were very professional. They were on time and very careful to cover my floor and stairs. They were meticulous with their work and everything was completed in about 5 hours. Clean up was also good both in my basement and outside my house."
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.
