Excavation · How long
Say how long a foundation excavation takes
People go quiet when they cannot picture the disruption. Say what the days look like. Do not promise a start date you do not have.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
The real schedule
Mud season changes how the machine gets in. Say so if the driveway will not hold the truck. The builder, not the homeowner, often has to accept the access plan.
What the price is not
The $15,000 includes dig, haul-off of the spoil, and backfill after the walls are poured. It does not include utility locates you still need to schedule, and rock if we hit it. Do not include unknown rock in a firm price.
