"Variant was fantastic through the entire project. From the first phone call during bids through the completion, you knew you were working with a real professional. Adam was communicative, insightful, and thorough. Through each phase we have had Adam out, his work has been well done and beautifully finished. His dedication to his customers goals is felt. I would happily recommend him to friends and family."

"Dillon Excavation just completed a grading and drain system project for me on my horse property, and his work was exemplary. He was conscientious, punctual, thorough, and knowledgeable. The final cost was exactly what he quoted, and he was a pleasure to work with. Dillon’s integrity is top notch, and I’d absolutely hire him again and again."

"Matt was very professional, efficient with his time, competitively priced, and amicable. He avoided many things that we discovered in the ground, even after private utility location. I would absolutely hire him again for future projects and would refer him to anyone needing an excavation operator with refined skills. Thanks, Matt! Five Stars!"

"I have had the pleasure of working with the owner of this excavation company on a residential project, and the service was exemplary. He went out of his way to help with the preparation of the house, making sure everything was in order before the continuation of work. Knowledgeable, efficient, and clear, he kept us updated every step of the way. The attention to detail and willingness to accommodate changed everything and were the reason I would highly recommend his services to anyone in need of reliable professional work."

"Matt and his company did through and quality work. We couldn't have been happier with the end result. He went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with the work that was done. We had several bids and he was 1/3 of the cost the others were. But more importantly he stood behind the work he did and was a man of his word which is so hard to find. If you're struggling to find someone who is reliable and does quality work look no further. You won't be dissappointed"

"I just moved to Skagit Valley and know nothing about site preparation for my new house. The wooded, 1 acre lot had been partially logged but needed more tree removal, slash burning and major debris clean up. For the bid meeting, Dennis "Boomer" Hyatt arrived at the lot a few minutes early and had already sized up the project and offered new ideas as to how to best accomplish the project within my budget. I had been told it couldn't be done and I would have to do it in stages. Another contractor had bid a much higher price. We set a work date and started work on that date. His crew showed up on time and got to work immediately. The guys obviously knew each other and worked well as a team. They got the burn pile going, cranked up the chain saws and excavator and got to work. They worked steadiy both days and got the job done. the lot is absolutely builder ready and I couldn't be more pleased. I only hope the rest of my build project goes as well. They are going to back in the spring to help me put in the yard and reconfigure the driveway. Absolute 5 stars for this business."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

To locate an underground downspout, you should start by identifying where the above ground gutter drains. Look for an entry point, such as a pipe or elbow leading into the ground. Follow the surface path for signs like depressions, landscaping disruptions, or wet areas after rain. You can use a metal detector or plumber’s snake to trace the pipe underground. For deeper pipes, a professional locator tool or camera inspection may be necessary. Visual markers or utility maps can also guide the search.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

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.

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.
