"Gene and his crew did an awesome job! We had a 92 linear foot retaining wall built and tree taken down on the property. We could not be happier with the level of service that was provided. The crew was professional and respectful. I highly recommend McKenzie Contracting for your job."

"Experienced basement flooding due to Frankenstorm. I emailed Waterproofing, Inc. the morning after the storm, and was called back
within the hour. I met with Steve Norfolk at the building an hour after that with my maintenance contractor to assess the problem. We determined the problem was a malfunctioning sump pump. Waterproofing, Inc. did not charge for the visit. Their responsiveness, and helpfulness on probably the busiest day of the year was extraordinary.

"It went well. When the excavator was working, I didn't really understand when he asked if we wanted to "feather" the uneven ground around the pool- so now we have a lot of ground without the grass that was there because the feathering was put over top of the grass - killing it. Overall, I would recommend C&D's. They were very responsive every step."

FAQs for excavation projects in Broomes Island, MD

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.
