          Every project differs, but you should ask any excavation contractor for an estimate, before they do any work. In fact, ask for their general payment terms before any excavation services work is done.

          If the job is large and going to take longer than a day, it's common practice for excavation contractors to request a down payment. Usually, this will be around 25% so they can commence work on your excavation contractor project.

          • Ask the excavation contractor to describe what they did. Whether your excavation services project was a repair job or a building job, have them run you through what was done.
          • Compare the description provided on your excavation services project estimate to the work completed. Did the professional do what was promised?
          • Request that the excavation contractor do a follow-up visit to check on the work. Most professionals are willing to do this, especially if you ask them.
