"Eric and his crew are knowledgeable, prompt, courteous, reliable, and hard-working. Eric listened to my requests, offered helpful guidance, and did a great job. He excavated a trench through a difficult, rocky area; installed electrical conduit; and removed a section of concrete pad for a renovation project. Highly recommend!"

"I highly, highly recommend Andy Naylor! We are doing a complicated addition to our house in the Hollow; Andy and his crew did a phenomenal job excavating our addition into a hillside, moving our septic tank, and fixing grades all around the house. An added bonus was that he completely transformed our property in the process- we now have double the amount of flat lawn and beautiful rockscaping with boulders all around the house and yard. Andy and his crew were communicative, professional, patient, timely, friendly, and extremely fairly priced. I could not have had a better experience!! Thanks, Andy!"

Small jobs welcome

"This young man has obviously been the recipient of tutelage well beyond his experience as he is wise beyond his years. He is very affable and is a very good listener. He is somehow able to grasp your vision beyond the words you can provide and create just what was in your mind. A fine young man who will probably become way too busy to work for you. Haha"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

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.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.
