"Recently purchased a new home, previous owners left a dangerous drop off and this company not only fixed the problem within a timely manner they also were polite, personable and reliable. I highly recommend this company for any excavating work. Radar Excavating is the only company I use for any further work."

"He came up to us while we were doing yard work, handed us a flyer and a business card, told us what he is able to do and for better prices. We started talking about the issues we had with roof, he gave us a price and we hired him on the spot. Met him to get materials, he had our leak and horrible roof fixed in TWO DAYS, clean up and all, he was on time, and didn't stay too late. it was a great new start. we plan on calling him back and having him fix some issues in house next."

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.
