"Had a quote done and accepted quote same day. Scheduled 3 weeks out. Called to confirm day before so I didn't waste a day off work. Couldn't make so scheduled next day. Confirmed they were going to make it again which they said they were. After waiting a while messaged for ETA. Wasn't going to make it. Waited for reschedule. Received reschedule and didn't make that day either. Poor communication and I guess if you're not a big enough job you are not a priority. After second no show called got a quote from another company and they were out in 3 days and did a good job. Would not recommend. Came as a recommendation from family as well."

"The man was nice but I was disappointed that the work was never completed and I never got my receipt that I was told I'd get for the $200 I had to pay just for them to come out and tell me they couldn't find the location to pump. I tried asking for the receipt but the assured me I'd see it in the mail. Still haven't seen that."

"Paul hired the person to plant 6 arborvitae..one planted crooked and two over my property line, three died and no response back after he promised to replant 3 more where the dead ones were. No soil amendment, no mulch applied after planting and the roots appeared diseased when I pulled them out. They were over 5 feet tall trees when planted and did not last a year. Paul failed to follow through with his promise to guarantee his work. Would not recommend."

Land clearing services FAQs

Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70 per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12 per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.

Yes, you will want to confirm that the tree removal company you hire is insured before proceeding with the job. Tree removal can be dangerous work, and it's important to verify that the company carries the proper insurance to cover any onsite accidents or damage.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities. 

When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25 per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.

The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200 per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type. 

When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180 per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.

On average, removing a tree costs around $750, but you can expect to pay between $200 to $2,000. Factors that impact the overall cost include the number of trees you’re having removed, their height, the diameter of their trunks, permits needed, and the tree’s accessibility. You’ll pay more if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or dangerous location, like close to power lines.
