"J&H Excavating are an amazing team! They did such a great job on our water line (I thought it was an impossible project and they thankfully proved me wrong) we hired them to build a beautiful half-acre pond. They were super efficient, professional, courteous, responsive, and a pleasure to have around."

"Mr Cottrill blew my expectations out of the water! When I first made contact with this company I knew right from the start it was the correct choice. I explain my situation with my cattle water source being silted in. Upon arrival he quickly came up with an idea on what course of action should be taken. After he explained everything that he was going to he asked me for any questions or suggestions. Added a 2/1 slope for my cattle to have easy access to the water and also to make my brush hogging easier. This job was completed not only on schedule but, completed AHEAD of schedule. All of this work was done with a miniature hydraulic excavator, this guy is top tier. He will get my work for the remainder of my life."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

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.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.
