"I am never one to write a negative review. I go out of my way to support small businesses and refer; but this will be the exception. We hired GBC for a $106,000 bid on our backyard and they left the job expecting payment in full. Their workmanship was sub-par at best. Pavers, unlevel. Stonework and masonry, unfinished and not plum. Left a mess of masonry on new pavers and left our kitchen without electricity, granite and forgot to put in a drain for the outdoor sink which we cannot install now because of their lack of pre-direction. The foreman also harassed my neighbor and their construction contractor and was out of line and unprofessional in many instances. I am appalled at the quality of work, ethics and outcome from this company and feel it’s my obligation to help protect others from their poor workmanship. It’s been a lesson for us, we hope others don’t have to deal with the same."

Renting an excavator with a professional operator costs more than renting equipment only, reflecting the added value of skilled labor. This arrangement eliminates the learning curve associated with machine operation and transfers liability to the service provider. For homeowners without experience with heavy equipment, the additional expense often proves worthwhile through increased efficiency and a reduced risk of property damage or personal injury.
Residential foundation work often requires a medium-sized excavator with sufficient digging depth and power to handle the project effectively. These machines offer the necessary capabilities without the excessive costs of larger models. When selecting equipment, consider both the foundation dimensions and site access limitations. The appropriate bucket width is also important—wider buckets move more material quickly, while narrower options provide greater precision in confined spaces.
Equipment rental requires some form of liability coverage. While some homeowners' insurance policies extend to rented equipment, many do not provide adequate protection. Rental companies offer insurance options or require proof of appropriate coverage before releasing equipment. Coverage requirements and costs vary based on the equipment value and project scope, making it essential to verify your protection before beginning work.
While formal certification isn't always mandatory for equipment rental, operating an excavator safely requires proper training. Most rental companies provide basic operational instructions, but expect renters to have some familiarity with heavy machinery. Depending on your location and project type, local regulations may require specific certifications or permits. Research your area's requirements before renting to ensure compliance with all applicable safety regulations.
Securing your equipment reservation well in advance of your project start date is advisable, particularly during the construction season. A two-week advance booking is recommended to ensure availability of your preferred machine type and size. During slower periods, shorter notice may be acceptable, but early planning provides greater flexibility and peace of mind. Some rental companies offer scheduling priority to customers who book further in advance.
