"Last week, I hired Jason Excavating again for a driveway job to install the catch basin in front of my house. He did an excellent job. He's extremely responsible, very knowledgeable about his work, and an excellent person. I will always recommend him. He goes the extra mile in his work. I'm always grateful."

"Dave completed a full master bath remodel for me that is absolutely gorgeous, along with kitchen tiling work, paining and lighting jobs. I could not be happier with his work! His work is top notch and he always wants to make sure that you are satisfied. Dave is always prompt in the morning and cleans everything when he leaves each day. He does amazing projects and anyone that hires him will never be disappointed. I have hired him to do multiple projects at my house over the years and have recommended him to several people. I will always continue to use him for any project I ever have in my home. His skills are amazing. Definitely recommend!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

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.

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.

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.
