"We can't recommend Randy and the team at Roe Jan Construction enough. Randy was our general contractor and handled so much for our new home in Germantown: site work, excavation, a custom septic system, framing, and GC management. We broke ground in May and were move-in ready in October. Five months from raw land to finished home! Honestly, we were blown away by how beautiful the house turned out. It's better than we imagined. The driveway grading is excellent, and the custom septic was designed and installed to fit our site. What really stood out was how flexible and easy to work with Randy was. Communication was clear and responsive from start to finish, and he adapted when we made changes along the way. The speed, quality, and communication made the experience well worth it. If you're looking for a custom home builder, new construction contractor, or general contractor in Germantown, Columbia County, Greene County, or the Hudson Valley, Roe Jan Construction is a great call!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

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.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.
