"I hired Al to excavate a stormwater management system for my new Pole Barn. He arrived on site on time, prepared with all materials needed to dig a 775 cu ft. trench and install the required corrugated pipe and downspout clean outs, and even worked into the dark with auxiliary lighting to complete the project per township requirements before bad weather set in. I liked that even before I awarded Al the job, he had already stopped by the township zoning office to gain a better understanding of the specifics for my parcel. Although there is still some minor grading work left to do, Al was able to get me through a successful township inspection without issue. Al will be back to add topsoil and cut cleanout pipes to grade level once the ground thaws. I admire that Al frequently asks if your happy with the work throughout the process, as well as explain each step. I plan to bring Al back to finish cutting cleanouts to grade level, and I plan to hire Al to do the final landscaping."

"Our yard was a nightmare after we had it ripped up from a sewage drain repair. I called Justin and he had a crew out to us within days. Our front yard went from a nightmare to a dream. His crew was professional and absolute perfectionists. They were extremely careful and clean when working around the house. I highly recommend."

"I had a great experience with this handyman. Very affordable, professional, and reliable. He showed up on time, explained what needed to be done clearly, and finished the job quickly without cutting corners. The quality of work was excellent, especially for the price. It?s hard to find someone honest and skilled these days, but this is definitely someone I?d recommend and hire again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.
