"Frank's crew expanded my driveway footprint, built beautiful stone retaining walls, and finished the job with the best paving work I have seen. A tip of the hat to the crew that was hard working and polite, and who worked through the extremely hot weather of late late August. Best Value out there. Thanks for the great work!"

"We could not be happier with our choice of Fredy's Contracting Inc. to complete our patio. Within an hour of our call on a Saturday morning, Fredy's son was at our house measuring our patio. Within 48 hours we had a written bid emailed to us. Work started within the 3 week time-frame we had agreed upon. Jose and his crew excavated (most by hand because of the awkward space) and leveled everything in a day. The next day, they worked through a rainstorm and laid the pavers for our gorgeous patio. We are do-it yourself kind of folks, there is no way we could have done this on our own. Top notch work, professional people, and all done in a timely manner. We will be calling them back for our next job! Highly recommended!! Wendy & Jim Moore"

"Tom and his team were excellent to work with. They really guided me throughout the entire process with my project. From the clearing, excavation and grading to the septic installation, they did a spectacular job for a reasonable price. I would definitely recommend them and will be using them again."

"Last spring I decided to build a new stone patio and kitchen and selected Elite Development to do our project. They were not the cheapest but it was clear to us that these guys know what they are doing. From layout, to construction, to final turf and plantings they knocked it out of the park. Could not be happier and would not hesitate to hire them again. Alan F"

"ProPavers did an excellent job. We hired them for 3 projects. They put pavers down in the front and back and built a huge retaining wall on the side of our property and everything turned out beautiful. He did exactly what he said he was going to do for the exact price he originally quoted. Very pleasant to work with."

"Excellent communication! Provided an estimate within a day of contact. Once the estimate was approved CLC immediately scheduled the work. CLC arrived as scheduled, and performed outstanding work for a reasonable price. I recommend CLC Landscaping!!"
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.
