"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.

Customers say: Quality work

"Great quote for a driveway base to be laid down. Job ended up being more than expected because of soil conditions, needing more to be excavated and also more fill required. Did not change on price! "I quoted you xx, you'll only pay what I quoted." That blew me away. I was so expecting to be handed a scam of 'needing extra this and extra that so you gotta pay more'. Nothing of the sort. I will definitely use them again."

"I couldn’t be happier with my decision to have a pool excavation done in my backyard! From start to finish, the entire process exceeded my expectations. Steven was prompt, professional, and incredibly skilled. Steve and his team took great care to ensure minimal disruption to the surrounding area and completed the project on time. The excavation itself was impressive—everything was done with precision, and the site was left clean and tidy afterward. It’s amazing to see how much more space I have now, and I’m already making plans for how I’ll transform the area. Whether it’s for a new landscape, outdoor seating, or just more room to enjoy my backyard, I feel like the possibilities are endless. If you’re considering pool excavation or any type of excavation job I highly recommend high idle excavation It’s a game changer for your outdoor space, and I’m so glad I took the leap!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

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.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
