Dug Right, to the Depth You Need

Excavating takes the right machine and an operator who knows how to use it. Digger & Demo digs ponds, ditches and basements with our own excavators, and we move the dirt too, so you don’t end up with a mountain of spoil in your yard.

FAQ

Pond, Ditch & Basement Excavation Questions

How much does excavation cost?

The price depends on the size and depth of the dig, the soil conditions, and whether the dirt is spread on site or hauled away. We’ll give you a free estimate after looking at the site.

What do you do with all the dirt?

We can spread it on your property, use it for grading or a pond dam, or haul it away. We’ll talk through the best option when we give your estimate.

Can you clean out or reshape an existing pond?

Yes. We can dig out silted-in or overgrown ponds and reshape them to hold more water.
