"I had my backyard graded, seeded, and straw placed. Pricing was very reasonable. He also framed around my inground pool and did the concrete work. Rick is a fair person to deal with. He follows through and gets the job done. I recommend him for your next project."

"I have hired Morehouse Excavating on several occasions for a variety of home projects some were minor and a few were major. I can say without hesitation this is by far the most professional experience I've had working with any individual or company at my residence. Professionalism, respect for your input and great value for the amount of work and attention to detail is why I would never consider using anyone else. There's no need to look any further!"

"I have been battling a choke weed in my yard for many years. I had another individual attack the problem area with a stump grinder. He uncovered a large orange root up against the foundation. I contacted Roberts Excavation.. The three man team listened to my concerns about wanting to remove the root without disturbing the foundation. They manually dug down three feet, severed the roots attached to the root bulb and removed the large top portion of the root without damaging the foundation. They drilled holes in the remaining stump base and large severed roots and soaked them with the stump killer liquid I provided. They pounded copper nails into the wood, at my request. They replaced the dirt and cleaned up the area. It is difficult to find a business willing to tackle a job like this. They did an A+ job."

"Was overall very pleased with the work that was done by this company. They showed up when they said and knocked out what i thought would have been a 3 day job in a day and a half and cleaned up ALL of their mess to the point it didnt even seem like any work was done at all. I am very pleased with my crawl space encapsulation and would recommend these guys to all of my friends and family. Good quality work and a respectful group of guys. Thank you!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

The cost to repair a crawl space runs between $1,500 and $15,000, depending on the extent of the damage. Major flooding or water repairs can cost up to $10,000 for removal and repairs. If you simply need to clean your crawl space, expect to pay between $2,000 and $6,000 for a major cleanout. Replacing a crawl space beam due to rot or damage can cost between $1,500 and $5,000, while removing and replacing damaged insulation costs between $1,000 and $4,000.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
