"I?m not sure if I caught this pro at a bad time or not, but he was initially very quick to respond and promising and had great reviews . He had the best price on the project of the quotes I had received at that time. I accepted the job. He said he would he done with my project in one day, one day turned to over two weeks. He claimed his whole team had illnesses on multiple days, couldn?t come during rain, and holidays or other things came up. At the end of the day the project looks good, but wasn?t exactly what I asked for. There was lack of communication for each day when it would be completed or if it was even done, and I had to reach out myself for clarification. Despite the lack of clarification , he was quick to ask for a deposit and full payment. After I asked for what wasn?t done right to be fixed, he said he would come back to finish up and never showed up again. Again, I?m not sure if I caught him at a bad time, but it wasn?t the best experience. "

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

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.

Septic tanks are typically buried between four inches and four feet deep, depending on the property, the soil, and the size of the tank. When the septic tank is buried on the deeper end of this range, it may be harder for you to locate it on your own with a soil probe or just by observing the yard for signs of the tank. However, if you have trouble finding the septic tank, a pro will be happy to help you.
