"I called several landscapers for a quote, one came out and gave me a quote the other one never showed up and another never responded. Called the one that gave me the quote and left message that I wanted to hire them and they never replied. Found Salâ s Lawn Service and he came out the same day to give me a quote and my landscaping was done 3 days later. Sal and his team did a great job and will call on him the next time I have a landscape project. Wish I could upload a picture of the beautiful landscape they did.. Thank you Sal and team."

"I hired Darren with Micro Excavation for a site prep for my barn. The pad needed serious grading, erosion control, drainage, and the 30x48 foot pad itself needed to be level within 1 inch. This was no small task! Darren always showed up on time ready to work, and addressed any questions, changes, or needs that we needed for the site. I couldn't have been happier with the results Darren produced, in fact the company putting up our barn even commented that the pad was within 1/2 inch and was impressed. I would highly recommend Micro Excavation! Friendly, kind, great work, at a reasonable price!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Dry conditions are ideal for excavation, but drainage issues can sometimes prevent this. We will assess your project and help determine the best time to complete the work.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.
