"He worked hard clearing out the honeysuckle and small trees in our backyard. He carried limbs to a dumpster. He pulled out the roots and graded the ground. He was very diligent in meeting my needs and making sure all my requests were met. I appreciate how he spent time walking the property with me to ensure I was satisfied."

"I have been battling a choke weed in my yard for many years. I had another individual attack the problem area with a stump grinder. He uncovered a large orange root up against the foundation. I contacted Roberts Excavation.. The three man team listened to my concerns about wanting to remove the root without disturbing the foundation. They manually dug down three feet, severed the roots attached to the root bulb and removed the large top portion of the root without damaging the foundation. They drilled holes in the remaining stump base and large severed roots and soaked them with the stump killer liquid I provided. They pounded copper nails into the wood, at my request. They replaced the dirt and cleaned up the area. It is difficult to find a business willing to tackle a job like this. They did an A+ job."

"Did exactly what we asked them to do - excellent work! Very happy with the job - they added a 15' pipe onto our current culvert pipe, covered it with soil and then grass seed and straw. Professional and very friendly. Would recommend you give him a call."

"Seriously impressed with the work John and his son did on my new driveway. From the start, John was super easy to talk to and knew what I was wanting. The guys showed up on time, worked hard, and you could tell they took pride in what they were doing. The driveway looks amazing – smooth, clean, and exactly what I wanted. Plus, the price was fair. If you need concrete work, give John a call. I highly recommend him and plan on using him for other services in the future!"

"Brock installed side steps and porch along with back steps and railings. He was able to access the foundation after removing the old steps and he discovered that the concrete beneath them was not level. He quoted a very reasonable price to fix it and he was able to complete the job and install the steps in a very timely manner. His work was excellent! I will be hiring him for all of my future projects!"

FAQs for excavation projects in Loveland, OH

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.
