"All aspects of this project were done efficiently, professionally. and the outcome exceeded my expectations. Communications were frequent and informative. Two maple tree stumps were removed via excavator, vs. grinding/chipping. This resulted in the area being free of roots and debris. I am very happy with the results. The price was very reasonable. I highly recommend this company. Pictures include before and after."

Small jobs welcome

"Russell accommodated a date change to come out to look at the job, excavating a 25' x 4' area in the frontyard, filling the area with good soil and setting concrete edging for a new garden. He came out on short notice after a full day of work. His communication is excellent. He had to change the start date of our job, which was not an issue for us. And at that he was able to do the work a day earlier than the reschedule day. He came out with his dump truck and excavation equipment, we talked about the layout once more, and he got to work. He was done within 4 hours, swept up all the dirt on the street and sidewalk, gave my neighbor an idea of who to call about having a tree removed, and was on his way. I was impressed with Russell when he came to give his quote. He's young, clean cut, polite, and knowledgable. Another company had come out to give a quote a few hours before Russell. They said they would get the soil from Carpinito Brothers (they also did not provide the quote on the spot. Said they'd call. Never did). Russell said Carpinito is too expensive, he goes to Gerard in Covington. I just really liked him. His quote (given on the spot) was VERY reasonable. My hubby and I are both very pleased with the new garden bed. I can't wait to plant it up!!! Can't recommend Russell enough!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Excavation and grading are both generally necessary for designing your foundation, and leveling the ground where your foundation will go. These steps can also prepare the area by removing vegetation and anything else that could interfere with your home’s foundation.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

It can take several weeks for the ground to settle after removing a tree, and the soil under larger, more mature trees can take months. The deeper the tree has been ground under the soil, the longer it will take to settle. However, this extra depth can help you plant new landscaping sooner because you’ll have more space for fresh soil.

The average cost of excavation is approximately $3,200, with typical projects ranging from $500 to $15,000. Depending on the contractor, you may be charged between $50 and $200 per cubic yard or an hourly rate of $40 to $180 for an excavation specialist. The total cost is influenced by several factors, including the project size, the amount of soil to be removed, and the soil's condition. Hard soil, tree roots, or excessive rocks and clay can increase the price, potentially adding $200 to $1,200 to the final bill. Other factors that can drive up costs include the presence of nearby structures that complicate the work or tight spaces that require manual excavation instead of heavy machinery.

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.
