"Five stars for Apex Site Works. They just finished resurfacing our driveway with gravel and fixed our sloping issues. The work is top-notch, and they even brought in extra material to make sure the job was done right. Great communication and followed through on every detail until the project was complete. Professional, punctual, and went the extra mile. Highly recommend!""

"Colby was a pleasure to work with, he is friendly, he takes a lot of pride in his work, and very detailed oriented. Our property had a lot of heavy brush, he cleaned out the underbrush saving all of our large trees, cleared the fence lines, as well as adjusted the elevation to allow the water to run off probably. Everyone that drives by stops to tell us how great it looks! Colby will treat you right, he is reasonable, fair and honest!"

"I couldn’t be happier with the work Chris did for me! He did an incredible job on my landscaping—it looks beautiful and completely transformed my yard. On top of that, he also repaired a leak under my bathroom sink quickly and efficiently. Chris is not only skilled and knowledgeable in his work, but he’s also very personable and easy to talk to. He takes the time to explain things and makes sure everything is done right. Plus, he was right on time, which I really appreciate. Highly recommend Chris for any landscaping or home repair needs. He’s fantastic!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep, with a common average depth between 18 and 30 inches. The exact depth depends on local factors like climate and soil type. In colder regions, pipes must be buried deeper (below the frost line) to prevent freezing, sometimes as deep as 8 feet. The digging depth can also impact the cost of sewer line replacement. To find the specific depth for your property, you can check the building plans for your system, which should be on file with your city or local sanitation department since permits are required for installation.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
