Fan soils below the San Gabriels — straightforward digs with the occasional rock pocket. Salas Excavating brings pool digs, pad grading, trenching, pool removal, and dirt hauling to Duarte — licensed (CSLB #752427), insured, with our own trucks.
Digs to print with haul-off included — standard, tight-access, and hillside.
Pool excavation →Pricing in Duarte follows the same drivers as the rest of our service area — pool size, ground conditions, and equipment access — plus the truck-cycle time from Duarte to the nearest accepting disposal site. As of 2026, standard-access digs including haul-off typically land in the $4,000–$12,000 band regionally; San Gabriel Valley Foothills conditions (45–75 minutes, traffic depending) shape where in that band a Duarte dig falls. The full cost guide breaks it down by size, rock, and access — and a free site visit gets a firm written number.

Yes — Duarte is 45–75 minutes, traffic depending. Site visits and written quotes are free, and we're honest if a job is too small to justify the mobilization.
Cobbles and boulders mixed through the soil — the dig is less about cutting and more about working through rock pockets. It slows cycles slightly and we account for it in the quote, not mid-job.
