"5 days I think it was he removed the creosotes here. He made many trips to the landfill, came back ripped up more creosotes and filled up his huge trailer. He removed the huge fire danger that kept me constantly worrying about losing my home to fire. Over the years had gathered a giant pile of fire wood and he removed that too. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the open land now. I paid him more than we agreed on because he deserved it. My land is boxed in by creosotes but now I will NOT burn down when a wildfire comes. My horses can see for a long way now......not just the dry lots they live in. I do have 4 pine trees that are scheduled to be removed. Fire will come one day and I am preparing for that day.... removing the creosotes and woodpile was the answer. I feel soooo much better! The only way to clear the land was to hire a dozer guy and he was the perfect choice. It was hot and he was covered in silt, had 2 flat tires on his trailer but just a happy guy all around. great guy"

"I was looking for a landscaper in March to replace my old beat up 40 year old lawn. It was my good fortune to find Frank Mattison on the internet. After I called them Renee showed up to talk to me about what I wanted done, to take her pictures and her measurements. Then I told her what my budget was and her and Frank worked with me to meet an agreed upon price that we both could live with. I did not want the project started until after the rains were having subsided. His work crew with Martin as the leader showed up on 24 April and the job was completed on 27 April. The job consisted of pulling up the old lawn, putting in a new drip system removing a front yard tree and laying down two shades of rock. The colors they showed me offset each other perfectly and also worked well with the paint job on our house. Martin and the two other workers did a fine job and were very helpful when I had questions about what was being done and how it would fit into the plan I had outlined to Renee. Hard workers, knew their job and always worried about not causing harm to the areas that were not being redone. The end result was a great looking front yard and another happy customer."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

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.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

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.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.
