"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."

"This is a great company to work with. Made an appointment and he showed up on time. Originally we requested quote for tree trimming. In talking with him, we mentioned that we have excavation work to be done. He began with removing a huge pile of cut tree limbs and cuttings that have accumulated over the years. He cleared a large area and did a great job. We even had some old x-mas trees in that pile over our hill. He is returning to trim our tree that is huge. Very understanding and there was great communication throughout. I would recommend this company for a great job. Very considerate of your needs and an overall great guy."

"We had a above ground pool installed late summer and needed edging and grass seeding done. Groundscape was fast responding and had everything done in 2 weeks. The landscaping looks great. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them for more upcoming projects."

"C and H Lawn Care came to my home the same day I posted an inquiry with Home Advisor. Mr. Mills is very professional and quoted all the work I requested. I asked for a written quote and a copy of his insurance policy and upon his arrival to perform the work he showed me the contract and gave me a copy of his insurance policy. I told Mr. Mills that when the weather warms up I want him to come back to spread mulch and do some other work. Since our first experience with C and H Excavation, we have had Mr. Mills back to spread mulch in all of our beds around our home. He has also performed spring and fall cleanup for us at a very favorable rate. He is very conscientious and wants his clients to be 100% satisfied."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

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.

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.
