"I recently hired this landscaping team for minor grading and resloping work, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, they were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly detail-oriented. They took the time to assess the drainage issues on my property and clearly explained how regrading and adjusting the slope would help prevent water pooling. The work was completed efficiently, and the difference is night and day—no more standing water, and the yard looks clean, level, and well-finished. What really stood out was their attention to detail and pride in their work. They made sure everything was properly sloped, compacted, and blended seamlessly with the rest of the landscape. They also left the area spotless when they were done. If you need grading, resloping, or general landscaping work, I highly recommend this team. Honest, reliable, and top-quality results all around"

"I couldn't be happier with the concrete work that was done in my backyard. From start to finish, the team was quick, professional, and incredibly efficient. They showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the process, and completed the project faster than I expected without sacrificing quality. What impressed me most was how they went above and beyond to make sure everything was done right. They paid attention to the details, kept the work area clean, and made sure I was completely satisfied with the final result. The finished concrete looks fantastic and has completely transformed my backyard. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality concrete work. Excellent service, great workmanship, and a team that truly cares about their customers!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

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.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.
