"D&T Excavating (Josh and Richard) do excellent work! We hired them to resurface our driveway to the house. Their price was very reasonable, compared to their competitors, that we also hired them to put in a new driveway to our shop area. Josh and Richard took the time to thoroughly evaluate our property. They are very easy to work with, listen to your concerns, and remedy any problems you might have. We are extremely pleased with the work that they did. Josh and Richard are very professional, have an outstanding work ethic, are responsible, efficient, and did a great job!!! I highly recommend D&T Excavating if you want quality work done at a reasonable price."

"I hired Lason with Track works back in April 2023 to Excavate for My new garage and I could not have been happier with the work Lason did. He was always on time and made sure everything was completed to my satisfaction. There was only one small problem during his work on the project with the gravel layout and he took care of it the next day. In my opinion Its not about what the problem is but how quickly it gets resolved and Lason took care of it immediately. I would highly recommend Track Works for any project you may have and I would hire him again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

A joint utility trench, or joint trench, is a long, buried ditch on a property that contains two or more utility lines rather than running the lines in multiple trenches. Some utilities, like gas and electric or electric and communication lines, are better suited to joint trenching, while others, like water and sewer, are not allowed to be in the same trench.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

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.
