"The work performed was actually land clearing (which was not available in the drop down categories). Using a skid steer and brush hog JT3 Enterprises did an excellent job of removing grass, weeds, and bushes on my 10+ acres property. The area was so large, they provided a drone video of the work performed. This was an unexpected plus for this job and demonstrated their willingness to go the extra mile to satisfy a customer. They were great to work with."

"I researched many barn construction companies before making the decision to use Diamond W Specialties. They built me a steel buildings that is 40x40 including a 10x40 lean to that will be used as a porch. The concrete work was excellent as was the construction on the steel building. They told me they would be complete in one month from start to finish. Even with the week of Christmas holiday they completed the job in less than one month. The crew would arrive before daylight and work by their headlights until it was daylight then they worked past sundown. Each crew member had his specific job to do and it was like an assembly line. No one ever stood around wasting time. After construction was completed I expected them to pack up and leave but the doesn't half a day finding little things that most people wouldn't see and fixed them. When I went around the building looking for anything that was incomplete I didn't find a thing. Diamond W Specialties in my opinion is the best steel building construction company, period."

FAQs for excavation projects in Ingram, TX

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

Warm weather seasons like spring and summer are ideal times to excavate due to the ground being softer and easier to dig through. However, it is important to note that bad weather, like heavy blizzard conditions or torrential rainfall, can prolong the project length, increasing costs. That’s why it’s best to avoid excavating during winter or hurricane season, depending on your home’s location.

While completing an excavation project yourself is possible, we don’t recommend it. You’ll likely need to buy or rent the equipment necessary for the job. This equipment costs as $100 per hour or $2,200 weekly, increasing by as much as 50% for larger jobs. 

In addition, completing an excavating job yourself poses a safety risk. If proper marking hasn't occurred, you risk hitting buried cables and other critical piping, like gas and water lines. Additionally, if working with excavation equipment, you’ll need to steer clear of any overhead wires. Leaving this project to an excavating professional is best.
