"George and his company were very prompt and professional. He offered great advice on what was needed and he gave a very honest assessment of what needed to be done and how I could save money without sacrificing quality or the integrity of the finished product. These are qualities you don’t see much anymore when profit is the priority. Do yourself a big favor and use George and his team at M&W Excavating. I highly recommend them.9"

"Don has all the expertise and equipment to do the job you are looking for with regard to excavation and paving like I needed. Very professional and determined to do the job you are hoping for. He set up and did gravel paving for a driveway leading up to a gravel pad for a manufactured building I was having brought in. Used his dump truck to haul the gravel, bobcat to lightly excavate and spread, and brought his roller to compact and level everything out. The highlight was his candor and willingness to adjusting the job through my input along the way. By the end the gravel appeared and functioned more like concrete due to the tools and knowledge that he brings. Glad to have him in the area."

"Told me a price which was fair and stuck to that price . He had the job done within one week. He did a front sidewalk and a concrete pad in front of garage. He brought in gravel. But before he did those things he graded the road so the slope to the garage was not so steep. We had 2 other guys work on the slope and we were not satisfied but he fixed it. Loved his work!"

"It went very good. He's very professional and does a great job."
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.
