"Met with Craig to review the project and agree on a price. Set up a time for the work to be performed. Craig’s team was on the job on time and actually completed it a day early. The workers were fantastic and went the extra mile. I would highly recommend Craig Campbell services."

"Hector came up with a great solution for some drainage issues at our house. They were quick and efficiently and very cost effective. After they left it looked like they had never been there. Highly recommend."

"Joe did a fantastic job! I hired Joe to add a 1' rock retaining wall, add some steps, remove concrete, purchase and plant my front sloped yard. He was very flexible when I asked for more soil and plants and the rock wall and steps are beautiful. He suggested a special mesh wrap around the plants to deter gophers and they seem to work so far. He was communicative and kept the site clean when work was in progress."

"BEST!! David's company was the best ever for the work performed. We needed synthetic grass, new fence, stone work, irrigation system, drilling, planting and more.

Very attentive and wonderful to communicate with."

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Skunk digging looks like a series of small, cone-shaped holes on a lawn or around the perimeter of a home, porch, deck, or shed. The holes that skunks dig when searching for grubs tend to be no more than four inches in diameter and may be up to four inches deep.

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.

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.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

Landscape edging is more DIYable than trenching. You can DIY your own digging projects, but proceed carefully and only with proper knowledge of the equipment and appropriate safety measures in place. Keep in mind the project's scope and estimate how long it will take you to do it on your own. While you can certainly save money by DIYing home improvement projects, you can’t exactly hide an unfinished—or worse, ruined— landscaping job from the neighbors. It’s always safer to call an excavation pro near you to get an estimate.
