Customers say: Quick response

"Job was done quickly, efficiently, and properly. Would use them again, no doubt about it! The price was very reasonable. The crew was very courteous. My job was the installation of a new hot water tank. I removed and drained the old tank and they not only installed the new tank, but they also removed the old tank without me having to ask them to do that portion of the job. GREAT EXPERIENCE WITH THIS COMPANY!"

"Here to remove large tree branches that damaged my roof. They arrived the morning after the storm to tarp my roof and remove the branches. The repair was completed the next week. Garage looks great, very satisfied with project. They communicated with my insurance to help me get coverage for the damage. My yard was cleaned up after they finished. I would recommend this company 100%, great job"

"Top notch land and lot clearing did a great job clearing my lots. They were very prompt in reaching out when I did an online inquiry. They had someone out to do an estimate the next day. I was able to book the job and they had equipment out with in the next two days to do the job. They were very reasonable with pricing that I was actually surprised. The two gentlemen that came out and did the work were very professional and seemed very experienced. I would recommend them to anyone."

"I had them redo my gravel driveway. They dug out the old stone and dirt since my driveway was flooding. They graded it, brought in new stone, and spread it evenly. He was on time and reasonably priced. I was happy with the final result and would hire him again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

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.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.
