"We started with the land clearing then transitioned to excavating the foundation. Perimeter drains were installed. After foundation was back filled,Joe Pita rough graded the lot. Joe also installed our septic system . All aspects of our job was done very professionally. We would definitely recommend Joe Pita for all your excavation needs. We were extremely pleased with all his work."

Small jobs welcome

"I called Jake and left a message on his phone about what I was looking to have done. He got back to me within 24 hours and made arrangements to look at my project. He gave me a price based on certain conditions that had to be made on his end and told me upfront that the price could change if those conditions couldn’t be met. I agreed to that. When his conditions couldn’t be met he got back to me right away to let me know the situation. I asked for additional things to be done once he got started. I knew the cost would go ip but he lett me know that right away. He was upfront and respectful and easy to work with as was his help. I definitely recommend Jake Plasse."

Customers say: True professional

"Lawrence was an excellent contractor, he contacted and coordinated with the gas company and with Galloway co-op. He checked in regularly with me and even tried to get a temporary tank when it was discovered that my propane levels would not last until the delivery date. He wasted no time and came early to start excavation a day before delivery and that a great job burying and leveling the Earth after the tank was installed. Very professional, would recommend."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

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

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

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.
