"These guys did a fantastic job, very professional and clean. They were able to renovate both floors on my two family home within my budget and in a timely fashion. Handled everything from top to bottom, full clean out, gut bathrooms and kitchen, completely transformed the place. Couldn’t be happier with the finish product. Would recommend and hire again!"

"Anthony was very professional and clear on what was going to take place. Anthony and his crew arrived on schedule and completed the replacement of the broken sewer main in one day. No mess was left, grounds were smoothed out and ready for new lawn! Anthony's wife is very nice to talk to and takes care of any communication needed. My husband and I would highly recommend this company."

"I contacted Danco at the end of the good weather season, to do an outside job, so I knew it might take some time to complete. Well, I could not be happier wirh our choice to go with Danco. Due to inclement weather, it took a little while to get everything done, but Danny always kept us informed. When we had a good weather day, he was back and completed everything. I would definitely recommend Danco. They will be my go to guys for my next project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

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.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.
