"After leaving multiple messages and getting no return calls from the other guys, I contacted Masterwork Construction and was connected with Rob. This guy will do anything for you, from excellent explanations, to professional referrals, to amazing recommendations this guy has the information for you, and if he doesn't he will find it for you fast. My wife and I bought raw land and started the project of building our dream home. Rob is incredible when it comes to explaining why and how his company will get your projects done. My wife and I wanted to put in some sweat equity to save some money initially, and he was happy to tell us what exactly to do! If you are in need to earth moving work look no further. Give Rob a call and you will have zero issues getting what you need done, quickly, and at a good price."

"I had 4 overgrown shrubs removed and 4 shrubs trimmed and am very happy with the work provided. You wouldn't even know there were 4 shrubs there, the clean up was very professional. I'm hiring GV to come back next week to remove an old dead pine tree. Emmanuel stayed in communication with me, which was very helpful."

"I hired AP Excavating to expand our parking area with a stone pad. Additionally they excavated, prepped and dialed in a pad for our hot tub and sauna. They also installed a new drainage solution. Through the entire process Gus was super helpful in providing updates and communicating options and recommendations for various details. I’d highly recommend this contractor."

"Excellent job! Was able to also do other small repairs my home needed. Very professional, and low prices compared to estimates I received. I originally needed my gutters cleaned, Jolman Construction offered me an estimate on my roof and repairs I needed. I loved they provide a free estimate, with reasonable prices. Staff are wonderful! Highly recommend, one call took care of the things I needed to get done!"

"Great team to work with. The job was done a day early and completed quickly. Three window wells replaced and grading done. Very nicely executed, the job site cleaned up, and all at a reasonable cost. Definitely recommend On Board Landscaping."

"My wife & I had our master bathroom remolded. Cameron was very meticulous about his work. It was a pleasure to be consulted throughout the process. He provided options & was open to our suggestions. We absolutely love our bathroom and feel like we're in a luxury hotel. We both agree that it certainly was a great investment for us. As a result of his craftsmanship, Cameron installed a casement window in our kitchen and tile flooring in our half bathroom. We unequivocally recommend Cameron for home improvement."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

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.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

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.
