"This was a job I'd been putting off for a few months but figured I better get it done before the winter. I picked Priority based on other reviews that I read. John (Owner) came when promised to provide an estimate and was nice enough to tell me that there was a 10% discount coupon on Angie's list. They arrived on time to do the work. John, Paul and Mike were professional and courteous.
When the work started, John discovered that there was another pipe in old block cesspool. He had his men locate where the pipe led to and discovered an overflow block cesspool. John filled that one in also and only charged me for the pumping fee. It is a messy job because of the large excavating machine used but they took care to restore and level the yard as best they could.  I would use them again for any future work.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
