Get matched with top excavation major grading or resloping pros in Whiteford, MD

"I call them every year! Great job in trimming bushes and removing dead or dying shrubs. Good cleanup, too!"

"DDC was hired to clear and grade a building site. Exceeded my expectations. Was on time and done before schedule. After building was erected the team was back to finish grade, seed and straw, and repair rock lane. Would and have recommended DDC for any earth moving job."

"Sal knew immediately what the issue was and promptly scheduled an appointment to come look at the front porch. During the discussion I also mentioned that we had periodic leaking along the front wall of our house, which occurred only after days of heavy rains. Sal proposed that we had two issues to fix. First, he said that we needed a a membrane placed on the front porch underneath the stone in order to seal that whole area. He also found that the front porch step was too high, which is against code, and said that they would lower it during the corrective process. Second, he pointed out that the grading had settled on the front wall post-new construction and it needed to be re-graded (the periodically leaky wall). He scheduled the work a month or so later and it took a few days to complete. The stones from the front porch were removed and cleaned, and the membrane was put in place. He mentioned that he found two holes under the porch where water was leaking. After the porch was sealed, the stones were reassembled and the the grouting was redone and was much improved over the original construction. Second, the plants were cut down in the area that need to be regraded (we knew this would have to be done) and additional dirt was well packed along the edge of the wall creating a nice grade away from the house. We replanted this fall. Another piece of advice they offered but said we could do ourselves if we preferred, was to add dirt along a couple of walls around the house that had settled over time. There were no leaks associated with that settling but we could clearly see that it needed to be done. So we completed that job. We completed that job ourselves. DiFatta's work was very good and our leaks are now fixed! We did a little more sealing on the threshold of the door to make it completely watertight. This is the FIRST time since we built the house that the front porch hasn't leaked! They were reliable, honest and completed the job on time. There were minimal hassles and Sal worked hard to communicate every step of the way. We would definitely use them again."

"Dave showed up, all 3 days, early (7am) and worked diligently. From time to time, my wife and I had questions regarding how to ideally improve aesthetics (ultimately resale value), Dave would provide detailed responses and patiently answer our amateur questions. When we didn't fully understand he took a minute to explain. From the get-go, Dave was flexible whether in the quoting process or construction phase. If you are like us, who care more about the outcome of the project rather than a fancy uniform, Dave is your excavator. Reasonable, experienced and reliable, we feel confident recommending Dave to our friends and families."

"They responded back to me very quickly when I called them. They came out to do an estimate like the next day or it might have been the same day. He explained how to fix the problem, what they were going to do, and gave me the price. It seemed fair to me so I went ahead and had it done. They came out when they said they were going to come. They did exactly what they said they were going to do and it worked. So, I was very happy. I would tell others that they charge a fair price. They are professional and you can trust their work. The quality of the work was fine. He solved my problem. I have dealt with a lot of contractors and this guy is the real deal."

"My initial contact was with Mark in late August or early September. We had arranged to meet and discuss the work that I wanted performed (pointing up the mortar on the brick chimney and under the windows on the front of the house). There were scheduling problems (for both parties) after one or two attempts and I was later contacted by Josh, who finally came out to my house in mid September to look at the job. I was impressed with Josh's knowledge, enthusiasm, and answers to my questions.
After discussing the scope of work to be performed, Josh assured me that someone would get back to me within a week with an estimate so we could schedule the job over the winter months. After a week went by, I called to see of they were working on an estimate and was assured that they "hadn't forgotten about me". After another 2 or 3 weeks, I called both Mark and Josh and left a message to see what was up as far as the estimate and scheduling.
It is now the second week in December and still I've heard nothing. I like these guys and I would like to have them perform the work, but at this point, I don't know if they are too busy or just don't want to do the work because it is not a big job. If that is the case, it would help if they would just tell me so. I hate to look elsewhere, but communication is an issue here so I may have to give up on these guys. Too bad.
I rated them as a "C" overall, with a "D" for responsiveness (or lack thereof) offset by a "B" in punctuality and professionalism
 for the time when Josh did show up.

"Contacted on neighbor's recommendation before I joined here.
Called for an estimate to have an area excavated and install a retaining wall, drainage, and a slab on which I could build a shed.
Pete was able to come by the same day to look at the job. He was punctual, professional, friendly, and helpful by suggesting improvements and options to my plan. He even suggested cost saving options to me.
Pete was able to provide me an estimate via email by the next day, something that no other company I contacted was able to do! Bravo!
He was available to quickly answer questions by email and all around great. I had to wait quite some time for other companies to quote before I could decide. When the other companies' quotes came in, Piescape was competitive, matching one other company exactly in price, but not the cheapest. Piescape's quote did include better materials (wall blocks, and drainage) which would put his quote in first place for some. I was on a tight budget and wanted the cheaper system, so ultimately I did not choose his company.

Overall, I felt comfortable with him, and felt like I would have been 100% satisfied with his company doing the work. If the price difference was a little lower, I would have paid more for Piescape.

I also would like to say that he got a very high recommendation from the block distributor when I went to look at the color choices.

Thanks Pete, and I hope to contact you again for my next project."

"They called me to schedule quickly but when they came out they informed me that the Angie's Offer did not include building materials, Offer did not clearly state these items as not valid under the offer or excluded."

"It went well. When the excavator was working, I didn't really understand when he asked if we wanted to "feather" the uneven ground around the pool- so now we have a lot of ground without the grass that was there because the feathering was put over top of the grass - killing it. Overall, I would recommend C&D's. They were very responsive every step."
