Are you wondering how long that excavation project in the backyard is going to take? The answer depends on several factors, including the size and complexity of the project, as well as the weather conditions and other unforeseen circumstances that may arise during the excavation process.
At Rockwell Construction, we understand that our clients want to know how long their excavation project will take, so we work hard to provide realistic timelines based on the scope of the project and other relevant factors. Here’s a general timeline to give you an idea of what to expect during an excavation project.
Here are the phases each project goes through:
Planning Phase
During the planning phase, we’ll work with you to identify the scope of the project, including the size and complexity of the excavation. We’ll also discuss any potential obstacles or challenges that may arise during the excavation process, such as underground utilities, tree roots, or other obstructions.
Site Preparation
Before we begin excavating, we’ll need to prepare the site by clearing away any debris or obstacles that may hinder the excavation process. This may involve removing trees or shrubs, leveling the ground, or other site preparation tasks.
Excavation
Once the site is prepared, we’ll begin the excavation process. Depending on the size and complexity of the project, this may take several days or even weeks to complete. We’ll use specialized equipment to carefully dig and remove soil, rocks, and other materials from the excavation site. We will then install any necessary or requested walls, retaining walls, concrete walls, concrete pads, rock walls, rock steps or stairs, etc.
Site Cleanup
After the excavation is complete, we’ll need to clean up the site by removing any remaining debris or materials. We’ll also fill in the excavation site with soil or other materials to restore the ground to its original condition and ensure that it is beautiful and complete.
Final Inspection
Before we wrap up the project, we’ll conduct a final inspection to ensure that the excavation was completed safely and to your satisfaction. We’ll also make any necessary adjustments or repairs to ensure that the site is safe and secure.
At Rockwell Construction, we understand that our clients want their excavation projects completed as quickly as possible. However, we also understand the importance of ensuring that each project is completed safely and to our clients’ satisfaction. We work hard to provide realistic timelines based on the scope of the project and other relevant factors, and we’ll keep you informed throughout the entire excavation process.
