Every excavation project is different,  every location presents its own unique challenges. For example, it may not be possible to access a location with large machinery such as a backhoe loader or excavator; there may be the risk of subsidence or there may be large trees and hedges that need to be removed. The amount of slope on a piece of land or the amount of soil that needs to be removed can both greatly affect the total excavation cost. Because of unknown variables the price of excavation varies which is why we provide a free onsite quote for all projects. Factors affecting the quote include:

• Type of work involved (clearing, grubbing, grading, trenching and digging)
• Accessibility
• Size of project (the amount of soil to move)
• Length of project
• Geographical location, including proximity to natural habitats for rare or endangered species
• Time of year
• Transportation of dirt and shrubbery offsite, if required
