Thank you for your interest in Merritt's Excavation and our services. I got my start when I was knee high learning the business from my father. I will work with you 1-1 and have over 14 years of experience on over 250 projects to offer to your patronage and design. Our focus is excavating with grading, stone gravel, exterior drain & pipe replacement, driveway work, house footings, and grading work. I specialize in waterproofing basements and will take those projects on a case by case basis. We pride ourselves on our professionalism and I am born and raised here in West Virginia with lots of contacts for your to consult with if needed. I look forward to planning work on your home and do free estimates on any jobs on any projects with agreement or deposit!

"We had a leak in our half basement when it would rain and we have been dealing with it for years. We looked all over trying to find someone to help for a reasonable price, but all I got was people gouging the prices and giving me ridiculous quotes. Bradley reached out to me mere moments after I signed up for Angi to find a specialist and he came down to take a look at my situation that very same day. He lives more than an hour away but he came anyway. He gave me the lowest quote and scheduled me up for less than a week to get started and took him only two days to finish. The work is immaculate. I will definitely be using his services in the future and anyone else would be a fool not to do the same. Thank you so much for your help."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

This depends on your location. Sewer lines can be buried anywhere from 18 inches to 8 feet deep. People in colder climates will have deeper sewer lines than people in warmer climates due to the dangers of the frost line and freezing pipes. Permits are required for all aspects of septic system installation, so the city should have the building plans for your system, which will tell you how deep your lines are.

Trenching is not the same as boring. Boring uses a drill to make a tunnel for underground utilities, but trenching involves digging with an excavator, trencher, backhoe, or shovel. Boring is more precise and expensive, and it’s best for installing utilities underneath buildings, roads, and bodies of water. Trenching is simpler but can cause more disruption to landscaping and ecosystems.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
