"We had an excellent experience with Elevated Environments from start to finish. Nick listened to what we needed and kept revising as we went until we came up with the perfect plan. Communication was excellent throughout. The crew was unobtrusive and efficient. Our drainage problem is fixed and we ended up with a beautiful fire pit area. We cannot recommend this company more highly."

"Michael was great to work with. He had the proper equipment to get my site prep done right. He coordinated with the county inspectors and was always on site in a timely fashion. I recommend Dotts Constuction and I will use them again on upcoming future phases of my project."

"We needed to refresh our rocks in our xceriscaping, it was very spare. We ordered 12 tons of 3/4" Colorado Rose rocks, the same we had. They turn less red after a while with the rain and snow. So eventually it will all look uniformed. Isaac responded quickly to my quote request online and even offered to stop by the same evening as we were ready to do this project. His crew/employees and he did an amazing, filling in all the bare areas (many) and refreshing all with a thin layer of the new rocks, just as we requested. They cleaned up the areas upfront where the rock had been delivered and all other areas as well. Everyone was professional and very nice. Great job, thank you. We couldn't be happier."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

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.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.

Errors in site preparation can lead to structural failures or appear costly midway. Professionals ensure detailed, reliable home base development layouts.
