"We called Precision excavation in hopes to get our 5 acres cleared and graded before having a new fence put in, Daniel the owner was amazing to work with, he gave us fast responses, came out the next day for a free estimate, and really took care of and listened to what or view was for our yard. He was so informative and let us know exactly what we needed to get our yard looking amazing! Not only did he complete the tasks we were looking for but also helped us drill holes for new fencing to be put in, Thank you so much to Daniel and Precision Excavating for giving our home a new beautiful look and keeping us under our budget on the project we highly value your business and will recommend all to use your services!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

Digging a well can cost between $20 and $25,000, depending on your needs. If you’re looking to dig a well yourself, all you need is a shovel. If you’re looking to have a well drilled by a professional, you can expect to pay around $15 to $30 per foot. The total cost of drilling a well will average to $5,500.
