"when we had a catastrophic septic emergency, the team at Kahlstrom responded quickly to help us out. They proposed a series of measures to help save us money and keep our system healthy longer term, and didn't just jump to selling a new system. The area was left cleaner and more level than when they began, our system works perfectly, and they even helped patch up an ugly and shoddy rain drainage system. It is hard to say enough about these fine folks and the work they did. Thank you again!"

We are a full service Excavation and Trucking Company with 30+ years of experience. Specializing in Complete Septic System Installation and Repair. New or Failing System we perform perk and have Design Engineers we work with your particular project. Demolition of any Building and removal of debris. We do not perform septic pump outs.
"Septic tanks were left exposed, site was a mess, and vent pipe was not at the required height. We talked with him a month before we anticipated water connection, so he knew our timelines. We attempted to contact him every day for a week to schedule final inspection after water was connected, but got no response. It took two emails from the city for him to sign the certificate of compliance."

Winter conditions increase the duration and labor required for excavation because cold weather and frozen soil demand extra effort. Some local grading companies offer off-season rates that reduce overall expenses while accommodating longer project timelines. Homeowners are advised to consult local professionals to confirm that these rate adjustments help balance the higher operational challenges experienced during winter.
The time it takes to complete an excavation project varies. Small projects like digging for a shed foundation might take a day or two while excavating for a home basement can take up to five days. Factors like soil type, site accessibility, project size, and unexpected issues (like hard rock or high water tables) can affect the timeline.
Yes, it's essential to call 811 before any excavation work. This free service will mark underground utility lines on your property, helping you avoid dangerous and costly accidents. Always call 811 to ensure your project is completed safely and that it’s compliant with local laws that are in place to protect you and your property.
