"He worked hard clearing out the honeysuckle and small trees in our backyard. He carried limbs to a dumpster. He pulled out the roots and graded the ground. He was very diligent in meeting my needs and making sure all my requests were met. I appreciate how he spent time walking the property with me to ensure I was satisfied."

"Andrew and his crew were very professional, came out and got to work immediately. I saw immediate results before they even completed the project. Would definitely recommend him for all things excavating, drainage (french drain &, sump pit installation) and landscaping issues."

"The excavation broke my main water line. It was fixed the same day costing me extra from what was quoted. I found a crack in my driveway cement after the project was completed due to the excavation equipment's weight. I did not report it to Jacobs. The project was completed in the allotted time."

"Jeff and Corey accomplished all requests, despite the difficulty of old post removal despite heavy roots, rock retaining wall, poured concrete patio, and garage foundation. Both are very personable and easy to communicate with. Extremely pleased with the end result."

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.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.
