"Dan was great to work with, he kept us informed about when he would be on site and was always on time. Everything went as promised. My narrow yard sloped toward the house; he excavated and leveled the area, added a drain and patio, and installed a wall to keep the planter area from eroding. I wanted the wall to tie into my landscape boulders and it turned out better than I expected. He planned the drainage and ended up doing more than we originally discussed. He suggested ways to tie the patio drain into our existing system which we have since finished and it works wonderfully. I couldn't be happier about the result. Dan was on the job every day with 3-5 other workers; everyone was very courteous. Great experience, I would definitely hire him again. I don't know if the price was competitive (I didn't get any other bids) - I have had many bad contractor experiences and I felt completely at ease after meeting Dan. I felt he would do the job right and I was ok with the price he quoted. "

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.
Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.
The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.
Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.
A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive.
