"Bienskie (John Sr, John Jr, and James) did a excellent job !!!! The project was a huge undertaking to take on. They had to rip out all old walls, excavate large amount of earth, rock, and dig back 5-6 feet to widen my driveway, from a two car to a four car driveway. After that process, they had to build walls, a new cement path walkway and removal of old driveway and all materials not needed . John Jr , John Sr and James, did an overall great job!! they worked very hard with us to design, layout and built exactly what we wanted and needed as we pictured it . They always made sure that everything was done correctly and we were happy with the outcome. When all was completed, everything was in place and cleaned up. We were overall very pleased with the outcome !!! We want to thank them for a great job !!! Well done, john Sr, John Jr and James. God bless- John and Liz"

I take real pride in doing things the right way, not the easy way. Whether it’s a simple fix or a full system overhaul, I treat every job like it’s my own home. My goal is straightforward, show up on time, do clean work, and leave you with zero headaches.

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

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.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.
