"I hired them for yard drainage problems and driveway concrete work. The bid quotes were broken down which I liked. Material, labor, equipment rental, fuel, and insurance, etc. They showed up on time and worked hard each day. Travis, the company owner, gave me updates on progress everyday. I would definitely hire them any any future projects. I also referred them to other neighbors. Not something I normally do unless I really like there work."

"Scheduling was a nightmare. No communication between the front office and their service technicians. They screwed up the scheduling on their end, so I had to take another day off. Also, when they finally did show up, they were rude. Usually, people with a language barrier are polite people, but these people treated me snootily. I can look past that but they left a mess everywhere. Rubber gloves, screws and paper were left in their work station when they left. When I went up into the attic to check the furnace connection, I found more trash and work debris. But what's worse, is they didn't move my insulation back after they were done working in the attic. Finally, when I cut them a check on the agreed contact, they told me it was the correct amount. Only later, their HR was calling me for more money. They really have been a terrible experience."

"Mogensen Landscaping really sets the bar high for their industry - the whole team we worked with: Erik & Keri, Chris, their designer, and Bryan and his great crew were all wonderful to work with! Throughout the project, the high level of communication and responsiveness was beyond anything we've experienced, and the quality, pride of workmanship and attention to detail was really impressive. We were concerned about some large trees in our yard, and Erik spent extra time with us, listening to our concerns and coming up with a great solution for them. We absolutely love the design that Chris developed for our difficult space, and how Bryan & his crew really brought it to life. We highly recommend the Mogensen team for any landscaping project you have - they do an excellent job and are terrific to work with!"

Excavation major grading or reslopings FAQs

The excavation process requires four to eight weeks after preparations are complete. This timeline may extend considerably if contractors encounter unexpected challenges such as rocky soil formations, concealed utility lines, or foundation issues requiring remediation. Additional time requirements for drainage installation, waterproofing, and utility connections should also factor into your planning schedule. Consulting with experienced local contractors provides the most accurate timeline projections.

Creating a basement in high water table conditions remains possible but requires specialized moisture management systems. Contractors implement comprehensive waterproofing, robust drainage networks, and appropriate sump pump systems to manage groundwater infiltration. These enhanced moisture protection measures increase project costs but remain essential for long-term functionality. Professional evaluation of specific site conditions determines the most appropriate moisture management approach.

Several indicators suggest potential challenges for basement excavation, including consistently damp soil conditions, visible foundation deterioration, or significant settlement in existing structures. Properties with unstable soil compositions or bedrock near the surface may present prohibitive excavation costs. Professional structural assessment identifies specific challenges and potential mitigation strategies before committing to major excavation projects.

The value enhancement from basement additions varies considerably based on local market preferences, finish quality, and functional utility. Well-executed basement spaces with proper egress, comfortable ceiling heights, and quality finishes provide the strongest return on investment. Consulting with local real estate professionals provides insight into specific value expectations for your market area and property type.

Most jurisdictions require comprehensive building permits for basement excavation projects due to their structural implications. These include general construction permits plus specific approvals for structural modifications, electrical installations, plumbing systems, and mechanical equipment. Many municipalities also require engineer-stamped plans certifying structural integrity. Working without proper permits risks substantial penalties and potentially costly remediation requirements.
