"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."

Small jobs welcome

"Richie and his guys did a fantastic job. They put an egress window and egress stairs leading into our basement. In addition, they did concrete work in the basement. Despite having a small yard space to maneuver in outside, they managed to get the excavation done without damaging any of our fruit trees or plants. The stairs look superb. I highly recommend this company for any concrete, masonry or landscape work you need done. I can assure you that you will be very happy with the results."

"Alex was very punctual. I texted him in the morning and he came over shortly after. He gave a very fair and reasonable estimate for 2021 spring clean up and mulch placement. Needless to saw his team arrived promptly that afternoon and completed an extensive clean up. The place looks great! Thanks Alex and team! Will see you for weekly cuts in summer 2021!"

"????? Amazing service from ZenR Junk Removal! I had junk piled up in my garage from the floor all the way to the ceiling, and ZenR Junk Removal came in and completely transformed the space. They were professional, hardworking, and made the whole process incredibly easy. Now my garage is finally cleared out, and my dogs actually have a clean, comfortable place to sleep because I converted the entire garage into a massive doghouse for them. Seeing the finished space and knowing my pups can enjoy it makes me so happy. I highly recommend ZenR Junk Removal to anyone who needs reliable, efficient, and friendly junk removal service. They truly go above and beyond!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

The easier way to find buried sprinkler lines is to use the plan from the professionals who installed the system. If you don’t have professional plans, listen for running water on your lawn when you turn on the system. You may also spot wet areas, giving you an idea of where the heads are. Once you find the sprinkler heads, you’ll likely be able to connect the dots between them, revealing the system below.

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.

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

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.
