"Blackjack Land Management did a phenomenal job. I was very pleased with their finished work. Their pricing was very reasonable. They completed the work in a timely manner as agreed. Great teamwork by the crew. I would definitely recommend Blackjack Land Management if you have any excavating or clearing projects. Very professional and trust worthy. They also provide other services that I am sure they would do a pleasing job."

"Great job and service! We had a emergency and needed somebody there asap. We had other contractors that couldn't do their job until the dirt Hillside was removed . He was there within the hour! Got the job done quick and efficiently and the other contractor was able to get started. Thanks for all your help!!!"

"I hired BH for a large project (>22$K) to dig out around 28 by 48 garage, remove at least a ~half dozenâ large (>30â diameter) hardwood stumps and felled timber, and build large parking area. BH has the services of several very talented workers who listened to what I wanted and were able to use their knowledge of grading, etc. to make it all come together. The finished project is way better than what I had envisioned going in. The only â problemâ we ran into was a company (that I will not name) that charged $900 more than what they quoted on the rental of a large 50K# rock hammer - oh well, guess that is on rental company who will not be getting return business, IIn summay, yes I would highly recommend BH: A+++ !"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

If you don’t have a crawl space but have a partial basement you want to make deeper, you can expect to spend a little less—between $40,000 and $90,000 on average. However, if you’re not adding new finished square footage, you won’t see much in the way of ROI.

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.
