"We received educated options a quote for saving 3 aged trees & best care to trim, maintain extensive, older hedges. A team of 6/7 was dispatched to thoroughly complete all promised + additional services in lawn care. Not an inch left "unturned". Surprise was a custom wooden arch created on site to support a large weakened branch! A sweet entrance walkway touch. All completed in one long, very high temp day, and no complaints from work team, nor us. Highly recommend, owners Bill & Lynn, Team lead, Jason, and all the supporting cast, know their business well!"

Excellent work and pleasant crew. I recommend very highly."

"Jeremy and his team did a wonderful job. They installed fence panels, a privacy panel, bamboo outdoor curtains and some artificial ivy for me. They were fast, professional, left my yard immaculately clean and even hauled away the trash so my bins wouldn’t overflow. I already have several more projects planned with them! I would highly recommend Jeremy and his team at Eastern Woodland Solutions and I look forward to working with them again in the future."

"Francis was a top notch professional in all aspects with this job, above and beyond to help us out with our excavation needs. He stayed in communication with us and followed through with our plumber. Had recommendations to help us out all the way through the project. I would definitely refer and hire again. Very honest and sincere. Thank Kelley and Bert."

"Awesome as usual. Dan and his crew were a little late getting there but he kept in touch and they got right to work and got it done. We had a very tight schedule that weekend getting an apartment ready for a new tenant and they were indispensable in helping us."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.
