"This company did an excellent job after a large tree was removed from my front lawn. They brought their crew out early on a Monday morning leveled the ground with topsoil, put sod down, new mulch, stones and flowers where it was requested, and all finished within 4 days. They left it neat and professional looking. I would recommend them."

"Work was performed very fast, four days on site.  first day demo and removal of bad wood, Second fixing wall, adding draining; third finalizing wall and replacing top rail.  Final day was creating a dry rock bed to divert water away from outdoor living space.  Filipe came back and walked through the steps.  He showed me what was changed and which areas he fixed.  Easy to work with, fast.
I'd consider him for other work.

"I submitted my project for a kitchen faucet/soap dispenser/garbage disposal/Instahot filtration system through Angi and received a response within minutes. I submitted it after 5pm and they had Zach at our home by 8am the next morning. He executed the install immediately and went above and beyond by cleaning my garbage disposal and plumbing lines before re-installing. I was very happy with Zach's professionalism and timeliness, as well as the finished product."

"Haddock Construction poured me a driveway a few months ago and it still looks brand new. The house we bought was in the city in an old neighborhood so there wasn’t a drive way just a really long sidewalk. Well with the way people drive today I couldn’t park my car on the street. The driveway looks spectacular I even had them connect it to the side yard easement that connects to the back alley. No more parking mishaps! No more cars scratching the side of my car! Thank you Haddock Construction!"

"Such a great experience from beginning to end! They helped repair a roof and rotted wood from a 35-40 foot high roof on a historic condominium building in Midtown Atlanta. There were a number of complicated logistics with equipment and custom cutting and installation. Final House are experts at what they do and can help you accomplish an array of complicated projects with ease."

"We contacted Atlanta Bobcat Services for the demolition of our in-ground pool. It was evident from when Mark came for the quote that he had the know-how for the job, and was already formulating a plan. The work was nothing short of amazing. Well planned and executed with attention to detail. Mark and his crew really knocked it out of the park. Atlanta Bobcat turned our decrepit pit of a swimming pool into usable yard space. We are very satisfied and would definitely recommend them."

FAQs for excavation projects in Acworth, GA

Depth depends on the type of installation and the regulations in your area. Water supply lines typically require 24 inches, while drainage pipes are often installed 36 inches below grade. For most general projects, a depth of 12 to 24 inches and a width of about eight inches is sufficient. Sticking to these specs keeps your utilities safe, code-compliant, and easier to maintain later.

When you need to run utilities underground, you’ve got two main options: boring or trenching. Boring employs directional drilling to install utilities without exposing a continuous channel, while trenching requires excavating an open channel to place utilities securely. Directional drilling preserves landscape integrity, whereas trenching provides direct access for installation, albeit with greater surface disruption. This clear comparison helps you select the method best suited to your project.

Plan on 12 hours to dig 100 linear feet when the soil is cooperative and you can work continuously. This timeframe applies when work is performed consistently and methodically. Factors such as rocky soil, tree roots, obstructions, and frozen ground increase the overall duration, demanding extra planning and effort. Comprehensive operational planning ensures that every challenge is managed efficiently and the project is completed on schedule.

If you want your yard to look untouched, laying fresh sod over the trench is the quickest fix. New sod needs 30 to 45 days to root and blend with the rest of your lawn. A local sod pro can provide you with a firm timeline and tips to ensure the grass takes hold and maintains your curb appeal.
