I?m Jared Ponce, and I?ve spent the last 10 years in the field putting in real work and building hands-on experience in excavation and utility services. I specialize in heavy equipment operation, grading, landscaping, concrete repair, sewer repair, clean-out installation, and both water line and well installation and repair.\n\nI take pride in doing the job right the first time?no shortcuts, no excuses. Whether it?s a small repair or a full install, I bring the same level of precision, reliability, and work ethic to every project. This isn?t just what I do?it?s what I know.

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.

The best type of soil to build on is a mixture of sand and clay, known as loam soil. Loam soil has the best combination of these soil types to build a foundation on. The clay particles help with water retention, so it won’t erode like sandy soil might, and the sandy particles help with drainage, so you won’t see unsafe soil expansion or have an increased risk of leaks from water sitting against your foundation.
