"I hired Trent because he seemed to be a good man. He promised that he would not stop until I was happy. He did not disappoint. He did a fantastic job and his price was competitive. Will definitely use him again for landscaping around pool."

"Great! 5 out of 5. Jacob was prompt, professional, knowledgeable, and easy to talk with when we discussed the work to be done. On the work day, he frequently asked if I was ok with what and how they were doing. The result exceeded my expectations. Quality of work and customer service I received were exceptional."

"Throughout the entire process of getting 2 swales dug Jason was nothing but professional. He showed up right on time the day of he project. He and his crew seeded and covered the area with hay. He contacted me a few days later to check in. There was an area or 2 where the new grass was coming in a little thin, and he came out that day. Put more seed down and left us with what he had left. Overall we are extremely pleased with the results. I highly recommend them and if we ever need more work Marlin Earthworks will be our one and only call."

"Sean and his crew did an amazing job on a very tricky situation. We used him for several in side household plumbing jobs and when we were talking about my issues with my drainage on my house he said he could help. The builder did a terrible job with it and we were getting water inside the house. Sean set the plan to dig up, excavate the drainage lines and fix the problem. He communicated often through out the project and got it done ahead of schedule. I highly recommend Sean and his team for any indoor or outdoor plumbing or water issue."

"Went great. They kept in touch so that I would know exactly when he would be there to do the work. All the work requested was completed and branches were put in a paper yard bag I provided and left at the street for the chipper service.  Very professional and easy to work with.

FAQs for excavation major grading or resloping projects in Nashville, TN

You can excavate in winter, but frozen soil slows down the process and increases labor costs. Many grading companies offer discounted rates during their off-season, so ask for a winter quote and weigh the savings against a longer timeline. A brief conversation with a local professional will help determine whether cold-weather excavation is suitable for your site.

Foundation digs can be completed in as little as three days or take up to three weeks. Soil density, access, weather, and hidden obstacles all play a role, so every timeline is a bit different. Have your contractor walk the site and flag any potential issues early—clear expectations help keep both the schedule and budget on track.

You must always call 811 before excavating. Dial 811 a few days in advance so that utility crews can mark underground lines and ensure the area is safe for digging. Hitting a buried cable or gas pipe can be both dangerous and expensive, and many municipalities will not issue permits unless the site is flagged correctly.

To remove soil during an excavation project, your crew will load the spoil into dump trucks with a backhoe or excavator, haul it to a disposal site, and return for the next load. Efficient hauling keeps the work zone clear and the project moving. Depending on the site and volume of osil, multiple trucks may rotate to maintain a steady flow.
