"Isaac and his assistant provided excellent service in removing one of our Blue Spruce trees. It was a costly project, but we expected that due to the complexity of the removal process. They arrived on the scheduled date and spent almost seven hours in reducing our tree to a stump, which we will need to camouflage. We decided to remove the tree as it had grown so tall and wide it became too close to our home and that of our neighbor. With heavy winds and threat of lightening storms, it was the right decision for us. The cut branches necessitated two trailerloads to haul away, meaning two trips to the disposal site, and they never complained in the 95+degree weather. The cleanup was very thorough, and we are happy to highly recommend this company to others."

"Noel did a beautiful job on our landscaping project last year. All of our neighbors compliment us on the new look of our front yard. He is very professional and followed up several times to check on everything. He is very easy to work with and listened to what we wanted and followed through. He was very helpful with suggestions to make the project have the best possible outcome. Great experience working with Noel! I highly recommend him."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.
