"I can?t begin to express what a wonderful experience it was working with these guys! They exceeded my expectations, and at a fair price. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, and fast but detailed oriented. They listened to what I wanted, and gave helpful feedback to insure that my vision was created in the most cost effective way possible. They went above and beyond - I would recommend them to anyone! Both my father and sister work in different aspects of construction and were blown away with what they did. Don?t hesitate to reach out to them for all your grading and clearing needs. I had a bunch of storm damage from Helene, and site work that needed to be done prior to the actual grading (in two different places, on a small mountain at the SC/NC border). They did all of that, and used the wood chips and debris to help curb erosion. Super communicative, friendly, fair, and genuinely nice people. 10/10 experience!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even if the project only involves grading or yard leveling. Excavation permits help protect the topography in your area and can avoid issues with poor drainage. In most cases, your excavation company will know whether or not permits are required and will even pull them and close them out for you before and after the job. You can also verify whether permits are necessary by calling your local building department and explaining the proposed project.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.
