"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."

"H Morey construction did an amazing job at demolishing and removing my concrete side walk. He was very nice and was straight forward with his pricing. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs any sort of demolition and excavating work. And im sure all of his other services are top notch also."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

Trenching and boring are two distinct methods for installing underground utilities. Trenching involves digging a channel using equipment like an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. While it is a simpler process, it causes significant disruption to the surface, landscaping, and surrounding ecosystems.

Boring, also known as directional boring, is a less invasive alternative that uses a drill to create a tunnel for utility lines without disturbing the surface. This method is more precise and is ideal for installations that need to go underneath buildings, roads, or bodies of water. Although boring is less disruptive, it is generally more expensive than trenching.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.
