"We hired Jason for a HUGE project at our house this past September. He went above & beyond & exceeded all of our expectations. Our house was literally overgrown with both mature & young trees & our entire yard was out of control. My husband & I are still talking about the great job he did, & our neighbors are also impressed with his work. He also took down a garage that had partially caved in without any issues. He estimated 2 weeks but did it all in 7! He removed everything for us too including old concrete steps that we have since replaced. Words cannot describe how thrilled we are with his work! Some of the fully grown trees were tight against the house, & he removed them without touching the house. We have a smaller area that we will be addressing in the next 2 years & are already planning to hire Jason. In fact, we hired him again in November to make pads for 2 sheds. He did that in less than a day and it was PERFECT!! We highly recommend Jason Excavating!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

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.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.
