"We were very impressed with the paver work the Accurate Grading team did for our driveway and sidewalk to our house. Cameron did a thorough walk-through with us and provided a very reasonable quote, compared with others. They got our project going within a week, and showed up on time daily. The crew paid great attention to detail and kept us up to date and confirmed decisions on design along the way. They did an excellent job grading and prepping the driveway after finding several large boulders. Can't recommend enough - great value and enjoyable experience!"

"I would recommend Trim It Landscape very highly. Their price is reasonable. They did the pavers infront of my house and am very happy with the result. It was professionally done. John Williams with his workers Martin Sr,/ Martin Jr. and Abel are very punctual. They showed up on time, thatâ s why a 5 day work was done in only 4 days!! They deserve Five Big Stars for satisfaction ***** Rey M. Escondido, CA."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.

There is no standard depth for burying a septic tank; they are typically buried anywhere from 4 inches to 4 feet underground. The final depth depends on several factors, including the depth of your main sewer line, the height of the bedrock, soil type, local regulations, and the property's landscape. If you plan to grow grass or plants over the tank, a depth of at least 4 to 6 inches is recommended. Deeper tanks can be more difficult to locate, but a septic professional can help find it for you.

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.
