"Very quick response and turnaround time. Hired them to clear and grade about 3/4 of an acre on our property. They came to check out my land and gave me a quote next business day. Started the project the next week and finished same day. Professional and kind crew. I'd use them for future projects."

"I had an outstanding experience with Shannon at Superior Services. He used his excavator to expertly level, trench, and slope my property, exceeding all my expectations. The cost was very reasonable, and he was impressively punctual throughout the entire project. Shannon's professionalism and skill truly made a difference. I highly recommend his services for any excavation needs!"

"It was an immense task to thatch the lawn. It had years of undergrowth. The crew was friendly, courteous, professional, hard working and focused on completing the project. They were excellent on cleaning up too. I do recommend them. And I am always happy to support a vet owned business. Thank you!"

"Sam helped me complete several items on a new manufactured home installation. We backfilled trenches, put in drainage lines and a dry well for my downspouts, and backfilled and graded around the perimeter of the home. Sam is a hard worker and has a "get-it-done" attitude. I would definitely hire him again and have no reservations recommending him to others."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

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.

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.
