Will the excavator fit through my fence?

Standard 5-foot (60-inch) gate openings are usually fine. Send a photo and we'll confirm before scheduling.

Can you dig footers for a deck or shed?

Yes. We dig footings and pier holes to the depth and diameter your build requires.

Do you handle the 811 utility locate?

We require Indiana 811 locates before every dig and verify marks on site before breaking ground.

How long does a trench take?

A typical residential drainage trench (60–80 feet) is completed in a few hours including backfill.

Do you remove stumps in Avon backyards?

Yes — that's a common Avon job. The excavator pulls the stump and root ball cleanly.
