"I’m so happy with the work they did at my home on my side yard! It was very low and had serious drainage issues, so they brought in fill, added drainage, graded everything, and hydroseeded the yard. They did an amazing job from start to finish, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. They are very honest, trustworthy, professional, timely, reasonable and so knowledgeable! The difference is incredible, and my yard looks so much better! I would definitely recommend Justin and Matt and would absolutely use them again!"

"Work was completed in a very timely manner. It was exactly as had been described. My only concern was the actual work came in higher than estimate which I wish I had been informed of during the project not when the bill came. Other than that I'm very happy with the work."

"We used Giordano's services on October 11th and were extremely satisfied! We needed an area of 12x 24 leveled, a barrier and stone for a new shed installation. Frank was professional, honest and gave us a great price. They were on time and worked through the rain. We highly recommend Frank and his crew and will reach out to him with any other future work we might need! 5 stars isn't enough for this company!!"

"We have used TruDirt on 4 projects, including clearing, stone driveway construction, lawn reconstruction, storm drainage and subdrainage work. In all cases, they gave us quick, clear quotes, showed up and finished on time. When completed, they always clean up the sites nicely. The pricing was also very fair for each job. We are completely happy with TruDirt's work and would recommend them to anyone."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

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.
