"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

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

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.

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.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.
