"Last fall we had large ruts in our 700ft driveway from runoff making it almost impassible. Steve from iron horse regraded, laid down and rolled out millings. I was a little leery about repairing it so late in the year. But then again plowing would have been very difficult if not impossible. Steve assured that with the grade of millings and rolling that should be no problem. And sure enough after a very wet spring and early summer the driveway has held up very well. Steve was also very good at keeping us up-to-date with his schedule and was always immediately available when needed."

Excavation major grading or reslopings FAQs

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.
