Customers say: Terrific value

"This company actually came to my house, the same say i placedmy request. he was very profrssional and after showing the area that needed the stone. He was prepared to give me a quote on the spot, and was able to provide the exact stone that I requested. he came the very next day and it took two days to finish the job properly. I was very happy that it was finished on time, since I only had a two day window to get the job finished. I would recommend this company, especially if your in a crunch on time. goid jb and thanks again for meeting my extremely short time line."

"We have had LandCore do a couple jobs for us. The first was a tear down of an old house on our property. From start to finish they were very professional and timely. They worked very well with the disposal company and made sure everything flowed smoothly. A few weeks later we called them back to give our driveway a rejuvenation. I was amazed at the amount of new packed rock their piece of equipment rolled to the top and leveled out without me having to order more stone. I will definitely be making a yearly call for this service!"

"Punctuality and professionalism are key for me, and Bergen Co delivers on both every time. I call them for issues I can’t fix myself, from installing a ceiling fan to fixing a leaky pipe. Bergen Co arrives exactly when scheduled and gets straight to work. They are very polite and make sure everything is installed correctly and safely. I appreciated their efficiency and respect for my home. They are fair and affordable."

FAQs for excavation projects in Taylorsville, IN

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.
