"Ryan Costello and son , did a terrific job excavating Hugh rocks buried in our backyard. Then transforming them into designing flower beds and refurbishment of a retaining wall. Leveling the surrounding area and reading the ground for numerous mid to large trees to be planted. When job was completed, they did a great clean up and within the promised time frame."

"They contacted us immediately and got the permit very fast. It took 3 days from start to finish. I would recommend this company for any excavating needed as well as installing a new septic system. They care about doing the best work for you and it shows. Fantastic company!"

"We cannot recommend Bill and his team at Central Oregon Excavation highly enough! We have been working with them for close to a year as we renovate our retirement home and have used Bill and his crew for several different projects. Every project has been completed professionally, on time, and with great attention to detail. Bill’s communication throughout the entire process has been invaluable—not only regarding the scope of his own work, but also in helping us understand and plan around many other aspects of the overall renovation. His team consistently shows up on time, works hard, and clearly takes pride in the quality of their work. Bill has been dependable, knowledgeable, straightforward, and easy to work with throughout the process. After nearly a year and several projects together, we would not hesitate to use Central Oregon Excavation again and highly recommend Bill and his team to anyone looking for a reliable and professional excavation contractor."

"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."

Small jobs welcome

"We were very pleased with both the quality of the work and the experience of working with Parker. Parker was a breath of fresh air compared to the excavators we talked to before trying Angi. He spent time with us looking at the ruts in our 30-year old driveway, discussed solutions and options, and gave us a fair, detailed quote so we knew exactly what to expect. He communicated with us every step of the way, so scheduling and knowing what to expect were a breeze. Parker and his crew arrived exactly when they said they would. They worked hard all day to strip the driveway and change the slope, so water drains down the hillside rather than pooling. They put down new rock, graded it, and then rolled it, so in the words of my husband, “Our gravel driveway is as smooth as asphalt.” Our family, regular visitors, and delivery drivers are very pleased with the end result. It was a pleasure doing business with Parker, and we are very glad we found him."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

Underground downspouts refer to the sections of downspout extensions that lead away from your home and gutter system. While they cost more than traditional extensions, they can provide several benefits, such as less frequent damage and no need to move them for lawn care tasks. Whether they're worth it or not depends on your budget at installation time and how much convenience they'll add to your situation.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.
