Since 1966, Doug Adams has served Stark, Summit, Portage, Medina and Wayne counties. We are the ORIGINAL Adams expert and we will be happy to take care of all of your water related needs.

"After checking out our system, they said that we would either, a new pump, the well pilled and an in-well pump put in place, or we would have to have a new well drilled. they installed a new indoor pump, still didn't work. They came back the next day, started to pull the well, and discovered that one of the pipes going into the well was severely corroded and was leaking. that part was repaired and the system was working once again. They saved us a lot of money by being so conscientious and diligent. The young man who did the work was deeply knowledgable about wells and how they work. We highly recommend this company and we will definitely use them again if needed."

FAQs for excavation major grading or resloping projects in Wooster, OH

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.
