Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between grading and excavation?

Excavation involves digging, removing earth, and creating holes or trenches for specific purposes like foundations or utilities. Grading is the process of shaping and leveling earth to create proper slopes, elevations, and drainage patterns. Many projects involve both—excavating for specific features and grading the overall site.

Before any excavation work begins, we coordinate utility locates through the appropriate services. This marks underground lines for electricity, gas, water, telecommunications, and other utilities. We then work carefully around marked utilities, and if we’re uncertain about anything underground, we investigate before proceeding.

Yes. If you have construction plans with specified elevations for building pads, drainage slopes, or other graded areas, we can work to those specifications. Bring your plans to our site assessment, and we’ll discuss how to achieve the required grades.

Timelines vary significantly based on the scope of work. Simple trenching for a utility line might take a day, while grading a large site or excavating a pond could take several days to a week or more. Soil conditions, site access, and weather can also affect timelines. After assessing your project, we’ll provide realistic time expectations.

Central Florida occasionally has areas with rock or challenging soil conditions. If we encounter unexpected difficult material, we’ll discuss it with you and explain how it affects the project. Sometimes it requires different equipment or techniques, which might adjust the timeline or cost. We communicate any issues clearly and work through solutions together.

It depends on your project and preference. Excavated material can often be used elsewhere on your property for filling, grading, or landscaping. If material needs removed from the site, we can handle hauling and disposal. We’ll discuss the best approach during project planning based on material quantity and your site needs.

Weather affects excavation work, particularly in Central Florida where rain is common. Heavy rain can make sites too wet to work safely and effectively. We monitor conditions and adjust scheduling when necessary to ensure quality work. Most projects have some flexibility in timing to account for weather.
