"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."

We have a lot of equipment around our building and he is always very careful around our machines and our buildings. Any time we have an exterior project, Mike is the only one we call. 5 STARS every time!"

"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."

"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."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.
