"First off Iâ d like to say what an awesome company. Iâ m so pleased and happy with the work ethic these young men have. It doesnâ t get any better than George Strickland and his crew. What a excellent job they did. George had suggestions that you could not argue with. He knew exactly what needed to be done for my yard and to please me. He will be highly recommended by myself and my husband. Iâ ve never had a job done that went so smoothly. Heâ s a very fair and honest gentleman. If you hire Strickland Landscaping and Irrigation it will be the best thing you can do for yourself and your projects. Heâ s very talented and can do most anything. Thanks too George and his crew AWESOME JOB!!! Dona Schubert"

"Courteous, task oriented, worked safely, respected our property. Cut down a 50 plus foot lightning struck pine and several large limbs over the driveway. Took extra time to shape the area over the driveway. Will definately hire them again for future tree removal."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Your contractor should handle dust control during the project. It's best to speak with your contractor beforehand to check if they plan to cover your furniture, protect your vents, or use fans to redirect dust. Eliminating drywall dust is a particularly large challenge during construction, so always take this into account during your planning phase.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.
