"I had Ken come out to look at a stump removal and I mentioned a retaining wall project I needed to get done. Ken took some quick measurements and then came back again late that afternoon with his team and took more precise measurements. That evening I had a quote that was comprehensive and fairly priced. We quickly agreed on the project and date. Ken, Rowan and Roger showed up on time and completed the job quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend McAdams Excavation and Landscaping for all your excavation, landscaping, and hard scaping needs. I am more than totally satisfied!!!"

"Quality work done relatively quickly. The tech went to the trouble of reusing a few fittings, saving me some material costs. I booked them through Angi, which I would not do again."

"Konnaugh and his team were a pleasure to work with. They showed up on time, and after demolishing and removing a hot tub and a chicken coop, they left my yard practically spotless! They did such a great job, I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for junk removal or yard cleanup ??"

"Amazing work from start off consulting through the end of the project. Very well rounded crew and amazing customer service. They kept me informed of the project every step of the way including when they were finding some damaged pipes under ground that we were not aware of. It reminded me of the type of contractors from home where I grew up in the South that were not out for the money but instead were in the business because they like the work and they love helping people accomplish their dream landscapes."

"When our existing water tank started to falter we knew we needed to upgrade. Derry Plumbing and Heating installed a phenomenal tankless system for our 3800+ sq foot home and we never had a reason to complain. Our energy costs went down and we always had hot water for our family of 5 and numerous guests."

FAQs for excavation projects in Bow, NH

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.
