Excavation · Hold a date

Ask which week to hold for a foundation excavation

Send this when they are close and the calendar is the remaining question. It does not replace the day-2, day-5, or day-10 notes.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

Name a real week

Mud season changes how the machine gets in. Say so if the driveway will not hold the truck. Do not invent a deadline. Excavation bids wait on access for the machine and on a locate ticket that is not in yet.

QuoteLasso does not take the payment

If you need money to hold the week, say what you need in your own words. QuoteLasso does not take deposits or payments. Do not include unknown rock in a firm price.

Which week should I hold for the foundation excavation?

Hi Martin,

If you want the foundation excavation on the books, tell me which week is real and I will tell you what I need to hold it. The estimate is still $15,000 and includes dig, haul-off of the spoil, and backfill after the walls are poured.

Thanks,
