"I knew my road project was a challenge, so I searched and selected the right company to handle the job. I was not disappointed with my choice. I highly recommend ACP Equipment and Services for the following Customer Service reasons: Sarah and Cody promptly returned all phone calls. They followed-up with and never minimized any of my questions or concerns. Consistent communication with the same people allowed me to recognize their names, and view them as my highly reliable team. Drew shared his depth of knowledge, which assisted me by clarifying the ins and outs of the processes involved and the project expectations (meaning he identified and addressed my knowledge gaps so I would not expect something they could not deliver). Drew was so patient with me! The final project outcome met all expectations with high quality results. There was no over promise and under deliver. The project cost was very fair and competitive. Drew offered future recommendations and solutions to resolve issues that were not budgeted for in the initial project plan, and I appreciated the insight and will consider this in the future. Overall, I would hire ACP again in a heartbeat, because they are in the business of helping people. Nothing but praise from me."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

To drill a shallow well, you may be able to use a drive well point. This is a tapered point that is driven into the ground. A drill bit at the end of PVC pipe may be another option to consider. A lot of the cost depends on what tools are available near you.

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.
