"Extremely professional, clean, and skilled. Got the job done far faster than I could?ve imagined. Graded out a building slab, trenched out irrigation and installed and prepped sidewalk. I originally imagined it would take 3 weeks he did it in 1 with superior quality."

"I hired Adam Hart of Skyline Excavation to install a stormwater soakage trench and site preparation for two raingardens on my residential property in Eugene to conform to city of Eugene's stormwater management regulations. He arrived the day after I hired him at 7 AM with his crew and equipment and worked 10 hour days for the next four days finishing up with a Sunday session. He was very knowledgeable about the work and his crew was very helpful on miscellaneous minor tasks. I would highly recommend Skyline."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

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.

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.

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.
