They took care of dranige issues I did not even think of. Had a buddy go with a diffrent compney at the same time and his 10 yard patio is all cracked up. If you want it done right then go with Universal Landscaping."

"The work we had done by turnethy construction was very fast and precise, we had turnethy excavate and remove an old septic tank. Excavate and grade for the installation of a new one. Turnethy installed the new tank as per the plans. They showed up on time and came prepared. We have used him since with smaller projects and look forward to using them more in the future. Highly recommend, from a satisfied customer."

"Matt was very professional, efficient with his time, competitively priced, and amicable. He avoided many things that we discovered in the ground, even after private utility location. I would absolutely hire him again for future projects and would refer him to anyone needing an excavation operator with refined skills. Thanks, Matt! Five Stars!"

FAQs for excavation projects in Granite Falls, WA

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.
