"Jerid and his crew did an amazing job on our site. From clearing the old out and prepping for the new home. Everything was done with professionalism. Jerid always had some amazing ideas and suggestions. No questions were stupid questions. Between Jerid and Brad there was an answer. We would definitely hire S4 again for our projects. We absolutely love how everything turned out. We really can't say enough about Jerid, Brad, Ty and Daydra!!"

"I hired Ben to recreate a retaining wall on my property. I gave home some guidance on how it should look, provided pictures and examples, however as he started to lay it out I had some modifications and feedback. He took all feedback and used his skills and experience to make it look natural but also function as a retaining wall. Beautiful and functional work at the end of the day and very reasonable pricing."

"Adam contacted me Friday morning within 2 hours of scheduling an appointment on Home Advisor that was to be the following Monday. He came by within 30 minutes to give me an onsite estimate. He gave me an estimate, I accepted, and he started work the next day, done within several hours. Adam is a Veteran, hard worker, stuck to the task and confirmed a few things along the way and made a few great suggestions. He's the type of guy you'd enjoy as a neighbor! Thanks Again Skyline Excavation... and especially, thank YOU Adam! ~David and Lisa"

"They did great work, in a timely manner, and it was great being able to leave it in their hands. He took the time to consult with me on how we could decommission my previous septic system, laid everything out and made himself available for questions, and then I was allowed to make an informed decision. That is just the kind of excellent customer service I needed considering it was a big job requiring extensive digging in order to set up a new drain field and tank for my septic. Definitely a great experience working with Nathan. I was so impressed I hired them for a second, smaller, project and I have offered to let them put a sign in my yard they did such a great job. I highly highly recommend them."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.
