"If you are looking for a cheap job to be done by a hack, this is not The company you want. In fact Murphy Tree was the highest of the three estimates that I received. However, They were the only one that I felt was being very honest from the beginning, knew what they were talking about and for some reason made me feel not only confident that they could do the job but also, I felt like I was not being sold the bill of goods. The tree that I had removed had been dead for a few years and was rotted through and through. When it came time to bring it down, They were not comfortable doing it with the crew that they had So they simply brought in another crew with more experience. It doesn't matter how cheap someone tells you they will do something, if they can't do it. Not getting this project done was never an option with Murphy Tree. I paid a bit more than I expected to pay but when the job was completed, I could barely tell that they were ever there. Excellent job!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, fire blight does not survive free in the soil but instead is carried through insects, animals, rain, or wind during the spring. Keep in mind that it can also spread on tools, which is why you should always disinfect them in between cuts.

Septic tanks are typically buried between four inches and four feet deep, depending on the property, the soil, and the size of the tank. When the septic tank is buried on the deeper end of this range, it may be harder for you to locate it on your own with a soil probe or just by observing the yard for signs of the tank. However, if you have trouble finding the septic tank, a pro will be happy to help you.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

Tree experts don’t advise against digging through tree roots, but instead encourage caution and consultation with a local arborist to make sure you don’t damage the tree’s structure or interrupt its water or nutrient intake. An arborist can recommend specific practices when digging and help prune the roots or dig a trench for utilities with a tool that can remove soil without touching the tree’s roots.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.
