"I highly recommend Dave Eddins. He has rescued us several times now when our sloping gravel driveway was damaged in extremely heavy rains. He has been personable and prompt, and his rates are quite reasonable. We think he is aces!"

"I can?t say enough good things about Donnie and his work! He recently cleared my land in preparation for a new building, and he did an outstanding job from start to finish. Donnie is extremely skilled, professional, and efficient, you can tell he takes real pride in his work. He communicated clearly throughout the entire process and made sure everything was done exactly the way I wanted. The property looks amazing and was finished right on schedule. I?d highly recommend Donnie to anyone needing land clearing or site prep work, you won?t be disappointed!"

"We hired Pyramid paving to pave our driveway. They worked with us in determining the schedule and worked with us in resolving a few minor issues. They did a great job. There was some grading work to be done which they did. Quality work all the way around. Would I recommend them? Yes. Would I use them again? Absolutely! They were great to work with."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

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.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.
