"Jeremy at Big â Jâ Construction is absolutely wonderful to work with. I was having a drainage problem from gutter downspouts. Jeremy keep me informed on when the project could be done and he took care of everything. He started the job when he said he would and finished the job when he said he would finish the job. So appreciative he did the job for me."

"Mr. Bobby Truett did a superb job of clearing brush, removing tree stumps, and trimming tree limbs that posed a serious danger of damaging fencing on my property. He was extremely attentive to my needs as a custimer, communicated with me very well, and paid great attention to detail. He even worked on weekends to ensure my schedule was met! I would highly recommend Bobby for any job that requires a skid steer!"

"This young man did an excellent job fixing my water draining in my front yard. His swells are very unnoticeable but effective and I think that’s what makes good excavation. I would’ve guessed he’s been doing this way longer that he told me. This man is barely getting started, thank you!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.
