Customers say: True professional

"The crew were very courteous and hard working. They wanted to make sure I was happy with the design and end product. Chris knew all the plants, having a nursery background, and James designed the water feature. I couldnâ t be happier with how it all turned out, and everyone that comes to my home says it looks like a park. Even the owner of the company says itâ s the best yard space theyâ ve done. Outstanding!"

"Greg is great. This was a 120 foot retaining wall project. Like any excavation project, this one had a surprise or two. Greg handled them with no problem at all, and took extra time to make sure all the work was done properly. I'm now looking around to see what else I can have him do on my property. I would highly recommend him."

"My husband and I are first timers on house building. Chirs, Brian, and Shayne were amazing at their jobs. I can't say enough good things about the job they did for us. The property was a blank slate. Nothing had been done to it. WIthin 2 days the trees were down and gone on a 78 x 150 lot. Next came the stump removal and grinding. More machinery was brought in to clear up the floor of the house pad and begin bringing in rock. They put in a 20 ' culvert and 30 ft long driveway. All the while being respectful of the trees we wanted left standing. Great people. Great job. For all of the work they did I thought their bid was fair. Thank you again Outer Limits! L & W"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

The rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.
