New Paradigm Companies has been offering grading and drainage solutions, earthworks services, and construction services in the Fox Valley since 2020. New Paradigm Companies (NPC), was founded by a tenured environmental and building professional with over 15 years experience who had a dream to create a firm that addressed building performance and sustainability needs in the construction and earthworks industry in order to provide sound scientific solutions to improve our homes and land. The idea of "New Paradigm" came about as our desire to change the thought process in the home building industry as well as how we look at and manage our habitats and land. The term "paradigm" is essentially a deep ceded thought process (think of the term, "This is the way we always do that"). That statement essentially encompasses a "paradigm" or a set of values or ethos that we have. We want to change the way we think about our homes and habitats as a more comprehensive and holistic management system instead of our task focused system currently in place... thus "New Paradigm".

"Excellent work and very professional. Chris is very knowledgeable, has excellent equipment to complete a wide variety of excavating, earthwork and landscaping projects."

"I thought I needed foundation work after I had a company install two new sump pumps as a precautionary measure, during an extremely wet time in Green Bay. The guy installed them improperly and I had water seeping in the bottom of my foundation that same night (btw it took him over five hours to install causing me great concern). He said it was a foundation issue although I’ve always had a dry basement. After tearing out wet carpeting and the walls (I’m 67)... Basten came out. In literally five minutes, Matt said the sumps were installed too high and flooded the drain tiles. In minutes he had his crew here and they installed the correct size sumps!!! No extra charge for an emergency, nor did they try to up-sale me, which as an older, single woman, easily could have happened!!! What honesty and professionalism!!!! Only took Noah and Hayden 45 minutes to install and not a drop of water since. Thank you!! Highly recommend!!!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Septic tanks are typically buried between four inches and four feet deep, depending on the property, the soil, and the size of the tank. When the septic tank is buried on the deeper end of this range, it may be harder for you to locate it on your own with a soil probe or just by observing the yard for signs of the tank. However, if you have trouble finding the septic tank, a pro will be happy to help you.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Silt fences should be trenched 8 to 12 inches deep to prevent sediment-filled water from escaping underneath. It also helps to anchor the fence during wet, windy weather. The silt fence fabric often has a red line to indicate the depth for digging. A good contractor will be familiar with the guidelines and regulations.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

The depth of a septic tank’s drain lines is between 18 and 36 inches underground. These pipes are filled with perforations and surrounded by sand, gravel, or a combination of both, as both materials help filter wastewater. While some pipes are buried closer to the surface, this can create problems unless the soil is compact and doesn’t shift much.
