"I met Blaine and his father, Ron in December. I instantly knew they were the people I wanted to do the job. As we walked around my yard I was impressed with their knowledge and courtesy. I was particularly happy to hear they'd been in this business for 3 generations. I interviewed two other companies getting the obligatory 3 references. The difference between the 2 and Blaine was night and day. Neither of them really knew what they were doing. One, it seemed had to check with my engineer on every step. Blaine knew exactly what to do without consulting anyone (except sometimes his dad)- they were a Team! They are the experts. The job was finished sooner than expected. I've never seen people work so efficiently.. They worked in tandem with the structural engineers specifications. Although I don't think they needed his instructions. They left a very clean worksite (after excavation work!) I highly recommend this excellent company."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.
