"I hired them to excavate rock, dirt, and an old playground from my backyard. Relevel my yard. Design and intstall a drainage system that would work for my needs and install sod. They were very professional. They began the work on time and completed the project in a timely manner. They even removed dead leaves around my front porch to make my house look nice and I never imagined my backyard could look so nice. Juan was so patient with me and answered all my questions. He was honest, reassuring and upfront with the whole project. He always checked in with me during the project. If I called him with questions he would either answer the phone or get back with me within 5 minutes. The price for the project was very reasonable. I would definitely recommend this company and I look forward to hiring them in the spring to trim my trees."

"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!"

"Great Tech, he was quick and solved the problem. I only wish they had some kind of Senior Discount, the hourly rate was kinda high and my husband could have done it, but after 2 heart attacks and 2 stints, I did not want to take a chance on him hurting himself. Otherwise, they were all great people."

"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

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.

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

There are several different factors that influence how long it takes to excavate. For a foundation, it could take anywhere from three days to three weeks. It can take even longer if you face weather-related delays or an inaccessible site that’s riddled with boulders and rough terrain. It may also take longer if you have clay soil, which is more difficult to dig.
