"Initial call for quote was responded to quickly, professionally, and with real courtesy. Even with erratic weather in Fall, 2009, work began promptly and efficiently. Mark's crew was friendly, neat, hard-working and committed to quality AND timely work. Mark coordinated stucco colors and texture with house paint that had been chosen for new painting. Despite severe weather, work was completed and graded post-excavation, in a very satisfactory manner, especially given sudden cold. In spring, due to the extreme winter, there were some problems with cracking of stucco; but I believe this demonstrates what a professional Mark is. All work was scraped and redone with material with lower temperature range, still coordinating stucco color, to avoid any future problems. Mark was good-humored and reassuring, even with this problem that was completely beyond his control. Throughout the job, he suggested options: reuse of existing block, new block or other materials and it was so good to find someone who has the environmental consciousness to offer reuse of materials. Regrading the hill for the stairway and better drainage to protect the wall was done, along with reseeding, to leave the landscape in better condition for a lasting wall than it had been previously. Many neighbors still stop to compliment the walls and the paver stairway. Am looking forward to having Mark put in a paver walkway and possibly "green" paver driveway. Couldn't be happier with the experience of working with him and recommend him unconditionally."

FAQs for excavation projects in Crownsville, 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.
