"Cavallero Earthworks came to our home when he said he would be here. He sat and listened as we explained our problem. He took charge: filled out forms, contacted the proper county agency, gave us a bid amount and my husband and I just sat there in the kitchen after he left awestruck by the proficiency and speed in which Ben handled everything. He took time out of his busy schedule and was in constant contact with us, keeping us informed of where we were in the process. He stayed focussed on the task and completed it quickly and efficiently. Professional, good communicator, proficient on the equipment, knowledgeable in his line of business, and just a really nice person! My husband and I appreciate Cavallaro Eartworks and wish them the best."

"We were looking for someone to do a remodel on a poor remodel job in our master bathroom and I got Deepwoods Construction from an online source. Andrew came out to our home and we reviewed what we wanted done and we came back with a prompt and reasonable estimate. He and his partner came out and did an excellent job of correcting the poor workmanship from the previous contractor. The job included removing a pocket door, revising the opening to a cased opening, adding sheet rock, new base and wall texture. I am very pleased with their work, great attitude and timely performance. I would not hesitate to recommend them. My best wishes to them in the future."

"Very good at communication before and during the job. Very hard working and efficient Tim and Steven brought and spread 20 yards of mulch and helped me with yard clean up and hauled all the green recycling away. It was a huge job and they barely took a break the whole time. Would hire them again"

Excavating FAQs, 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.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

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.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.
