"Central Oregon Excavation were wonderful to work with. We had a difficult yard area to navigate around that later required a 70 lb crane to get the equipment to the intended area. The owner, Bill, was super up-front and honest about the quote and what it would take to complete the job. These guys were problem solvers, professional and were on time everyday. They completely did a great job. I highly recommend Central Oregon Excavation+"

"They contacted us immediately and got the permit very fast. It took 3 days from start to finish. I would recommend this company for any excavating needed as well as installing a new septic system. They care about doing the best work for you and it shows. Fantastic company!"

"Holmes Concrete & Excavation designed and installed a stamped, colored concrete walkway around 75% of our house. The walkway passed through our front and rear gardens and also covered the south end of our house where we keep our trash bins and air conditioner unit. The walkway was well designed and helped tie together the exterior of our house in a functional, aesthetically appealing way. James Holmes helped us choose a color for the concrete that matched the exterior of our house. Overall, the final product exceeded our expectations. James and his team were professional, timely, and did a great job communicating the stages of the project. We have 2 dogs and they also did a good job temporarily closing off a portion of our yard to allow the dogs to use the yard without it negatively impacting the project. We are very happy with the work and would highly recommend Holmes Concrete for a variety of concrete related work. We would definitely hire them again."

"Extremely professional, clean, and skilled. Got the job done far faster than I could?ve imagined. Graded out a building slab, trenched out irrigation and installed and prepped sidewalk. I originally imagined it would take 3 weeks he did it in 1 with superior quality."

FAQs for excavation projects in Bend, OR

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.
