Backhoe Operation in St. Clair County: FAQ

A backhoe is handy when you need to dig and also move or load material, and it travels easily on tires. An excavator digs deeper and more precisely and works better in tight spaces or on soft ground.
Cost depends on hours or days booked, trench depth and length, soil and access conditions, trucking the machine in (mobilization), whether spoils are hauled away, and backfill and compaction. Standard backhoes reach past most residential sewer depths.
It can dig, but wet clay makes trenches unstable and tires rut lawns. Many operators reschedule after heavy rain to protect the site and the trench walls.
