Let me start by saying that home warranty companies employ some of the worst contractors I have ever met and because of this I finally turned to Angie's List. My first unit that would continuously pump hot air into my home whether the thermostat was on or not had been evaluated by no less...
Air Tech of Houston LLC - Christopher B.
Outstanding job, as seen in the photos. Ronnie was referred by Pavestone distributor, one of two contacts they gave me. One bid the job site unseen at $9000, Ronnie met me at the property twice and did much more additional work in addition to installing pavers at $10 / sq ft. Price was...

I am exceptionally happy with the quality and price of the work performed in our yard! The price included removing existing flag stone from around our pool and excavation. They moved sprinkler heads when needed. The workers are well trained and did a beautiful job. My yard was left tidy...

We had a water main break. We called three companies. One told us sight unseen there would be a minimum $480 to dig up and find what was there. Another came out to look at the situation for free, but then could not give any reasonable estimate, and I just got the feeling it would be a...

I called three foundation repair companies to bid repair of a sinking fireplace foundation. Allied provided the lowest bid. They arrived on time and proceeded to excavate. They began to adjust some previous piers and then stopped, filled the holes and left saying they were afraid to complete...

Lakeshore did a great job. The end result turned out better than I had expected. The quote was fair and the final price was as quoted. All debris from the old dock was either burned in my fire pit or hauled off. Nothing was left behind. Everyone who saw pictures of the job in progress...

We hired Fresh Start because of the stand-out experience we had when they came to give us their estimate. The owner of the company came out to give the estimate, agreed to re-use the antique bricks we already had on site, was honest with us about what type of result we could expect, came up...

FAQs for excavation projects in Kemah, 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.
