We had refinished our basement in 2008, then, unfortunately had water in the basement that did…read moredamage. I shopped around and got different opinions and widely different estimates. Excavators NW used a simple inexpensive fix and since then my basement has been dry. We had been quoted by others nearly 10 times what Excavators NW charged. Excavators NW had a much better understanding of the drainage and reasons for the flooding. Their repair included partial sewer drain replacement, French drain, and a sump pump, all of which were a lot less costly and made more sense for our 90-year-old Ballard home than what other companies proposed. I found out Excavators NW do a lot of work to keep houses dry since most of their business is lifting houses and putting in new basements. I knew nothing about the process but was curious and the owner was very accommodating in explaining how he keeps his customers basements forever dry. Super knowledgeable and super nice guy too. Highly recommended.

Incredibly experienced, professional, and wise! Frank and the team did a fantastic job with our…read moredriveway repair! Thanks to his knowledge and wisdom, we had the opportunity to also replace our water line before the concrete was poured, no doubt saving us thousands of dollars and headaches. Every step of the way, the team at Excavators Northwest has been awesome. Ten stars for this great company!

During the summer of 2017 we were looking for a person to excavate our back yard and pour a…read morefooting, foundation, and walls for our new two-bedroom, two car garage, and bathroom addition in South Seattle. I chose to use Angie's List where I discovered Mike Swope of Swope Excavating. Not only did he return my phone calls, he showed up on time and discussed everything in my contracts thoroughly. He made sure to rearrange his schedule to meet ours as needed. I never felt as if he were being dishonest with us. His references checked out as a currently-registered general contractor with the State of Washington and he provided copies of his driver's license and insurance as requested. The project required excavating 14 dump-truck loads of dirt, leveling, and trenching a side-sewer and storm drains, as well as adding gravel. His employee, Ron, was as polite and competent as Mike. The work turned out perfectly and we passed all inspections with the City of Seattle: Setback, Drainage, Ufer Rod, Foundation and Slab, plus Side-Sewer. Mike provided receipts for all materials and accurate invoices for which we needed to reimburse him. He was able to connect the foundation footing drains, roof gutter drains, and sewer together in a concrete drain trap. I ended up learning quite a bit about foundation and sewer contracting. I would recommend him without reservation to any home owner seeking an exceptional professional who is not only a competent building perfectionist, but a pleasure to work with as well. Sean T.

Rick's Landscaping & Construction was one of the quotes we got, and we picked them based on several factors, including cost, speed of delivery, and being a local, small business. Reading the reviews on Yelp helped seal the deal, as there were quite a few high-quality reviews. On the day of the work, Rick was here early, and did a great job walking though the planned work, and very accommodating about some changes, letting me know that the original quote didn't include the additional work. At the end of the day, the yard looked great, and I'm happy we picked them as a service.
