"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 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 questions, answered by experts

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

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.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).
