It all started several years ago with a dream to be different, we wanted to challenge ourselves to be the best excavation and grading contractor in Wisconsin. The best not only limited to the quality of our work, the competitiveness of our pricing, or the size of our company, but the best more so in the journey of how we would achieve those aspirations. We wanted to be transparent with our clients, and we wanted to create a family of collaborators, not roster of employees. And today, we are well on our way to success with those endeavors. We are growing fast, and we are going strong together with those who we work with. If you have a project which will incorporate earthwork, demolition, or utility work, I highly encourage you to reach out to us to experience for yourself what we are. Look forward to hearing from you, Masterwork Construction

"This is the second time I had Masterwork do my driveway. They did an Excellent job just like the first time. I would definitely recommend Rob and his crew anytime. Thanks again."

Basement Specialist is a company rooted in honesty and quality of work. We are a locally owned company specializing in basement waterproofing, foundation repair, and overall repair and maintenance of the supporting base of your home. At Basement Specialist, we recognize the importance of understanding construction methods and soil conditions of the Metro Area. Our quality reviews speak for themselves; Angie's List members love us!

"Dale was very thorough in his examination of my situation and gave me clear explanations of what was going on. Other firms that quoted the work insisted that the entire basement needed to be done. Dale said that we only need to fix what is leaking. Cost to do that was one third that of other bids. Crew was on time, prompt and thorough. I would definitely use this firm again."

Rodriguez Landscape Company has serviced the Milwaukee and surrounding areas for 25 years, We are bonded and insured. Please contact us to set up a FREE estimate.

"This was a multi-faceted project and went very well with just a few minor issues. While I had a very detailed graph paper drawing of what I wanted, I failed to put a start date in the contract. So, starting was a bit later than I wanted. But, once it did, things went smoothly. The crew was very courteous & arrived in a timely manner each day. They did a beautiful job. When I had issues, they were immediately addressed. The owner showed up every day to see how things were going. My only problem was that the grass seed they used had an inordinate amount of weeds in it. I did not complain to the company about it because reseeding wasn't even in the contract. But, mostly because the rest of the job was so gorgeous. And, I could deal with the lawn myself. All in all, a beautiful job. Would highly recommend them."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

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. 

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

The cost to dig a trench ranges from $400 to $1,200 per 100 linear feet, depending on the soil, depth, and width. Plan to spend $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching (it’ll be on the higher end if you have rocky soil). Renting a trencher costs $100 to $250 per hour, depending on the type of trencher.
