"I hired Brad Riddle to do a clearing , hauling, ground prep and laying rocks job . The front yard area was massively overgrown and several sections needed to be addressed. Brad was cooperative, helpful and had to work around my unusual schedule, my grandkids schedules and then rain delays. This took a number of months to coordinate.! We are all pleased with the clean results, and Brad has agreed to return to assist with locating the irrigation lines in order to add some plants. I would highly recommend Brad for his hard work, flexibility and collaborative efforts!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed working with this company for our turf repair project. They got us in weeks ahead of schedule as they knew time was an issue for our busy daycare. They came up with a plan to fix the seams and clumping issues in our turf that we just had installed by another company. They made the most of a tough project and were able to provide us with a playground surface our littles will be able to use for years to come. The guys are fun to work with and Dawn is a problem solver. I can’t recommend them enough."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

Yes, an excavation company is the best option for land grading and yard leveling. General landscapers might be able to tackle these projects, but an excavation company will do a better job because they’re used to operating the necessary heavy machinery. Landscapers might opt to do the work manually, which takes much longer and could cost you more in labor fees. Finally, excavation companies will understand local regulations and know when you need permits to legalize the work, while a landscaper might not.

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

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.
