"I cannot recommend Dave and Versatile Excavating LLC enough! Everything about the project was professional, fair, and timely. Dave had a vision from the first visit and knew exactly how to execute it. His work is exemplary and my driveway is now the talk of my neighbors! :) Two words: HIRE HIM! I will absolutely be hiring again for future projects."

"C2G did a great job with replacing a buried oil tank with an above ground Roth tank. They were in on time, came prepared and completed the job quickly. They were also the only company that we came by that offered to remove the abandoned tank too."

"I hired Andrew for both a carpentry and a yard work project. His attention to detail and commitment to excellence made the experience seamless. He was very easy to work with, and took time to explain what the projects entailed before proceeding. I look forward to working with him again."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, chipmunk holes may have two or more entrances. Chipmunks can create an entire network of burrows. Having multiple entrances makes it easier for them when trying to escape from a predator, such as a snake, or if an entrance collapses due to flooding. Each entrance leads to the nesting chamber underground, which is where the chipmunk spends the majority of its time sleeping.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Call 811 to locate and mark the gas lines at least three days before digging. In many areas, you can dig within 18 inches of the lines, though in some locations, the distance may be further. Check local regulations, as you may need a utility company representative onsite when digging. Document your calls to 811 and precautions taken to avoid gas lines. A homeowner can be held liable for hitting a gas line in some cases, but contacting the proper authorities and following all guidelines can offer protection.
