"Frank was great. Had him here to excavate for a shed and he did an excellent job. He was reasonably priced, knowledgeable, and friendly. Also dug conduit for electrical for it. Awesome guy and would love to work with him again."

"Jeremy and his team were amazing. I had a large pile ~3 cu-yards of sticks and stumps from a big spring yard cleanup where we removed a number of bushes and trimed som significant tree limbs. I either had places give me sky high bids or no-bids at all. Jeremy gave me a decent rate and had his team remove the big brush pile out of my driveway within 5 hours of the initial quote. My driveway was left clean and the brush was gone without a big dent in the wallet."

FAQs for excavation projects in East Kingston, 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.
