"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."

"Extremely well done. Project had flooding issues. The crew dug a drain well, regraded the yard and input a French drain system efficiently, effectively and were really easy to work with. Jimmy was clear, communicative and quick. I will definitely rely on this company again when necessary. Fantastic experience!"

"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!"

"FANTASTIC !!!! Pinpoint was an absolute pleasure - I hope I have future projects that I can call Alex for. He was very precise and careful in his work and ALWAYS implemented the way I wanted even as I made changes on the fly necessitating modifications and more materials. He also understands building codes and explained clearly so that we would not run into city permit problems. He was energetic and worked quickly - achieving a tremendous amount in a short time. Alex demonstrating that he knew how to bid the project properly, was diligent, and always communicated clearly. I have had a lot of experience with contractors in the past and there is no doubt that Alex is head above shoulders better, more honest, and very importantly - RELIABLE."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

The cost to drill a well varies, with a national average of around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can fluctuate significantly based on several factors, including your location, the required well depth, geological conditions, local regulations, and the specific drilling methods used. For the most accurate cost assessment, it is best to research and get quotes from local well-drilling professionals in your area.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

A perc test can take anywhere from one to eight hours to complete. The total time depends on factors like the amount of excavation required, the depth and width of the holes, and whether multiple test holes are needed. For a single hole, the process of filling it with water and monitoring the drainage rate usually takes less than an hour. Professionals can often complete the entire test in a single day. While it's possible to get results the same day, some companies may take a few days to provide the official report.
