"Pedro Gomes and his crew: Alan and Gabriel were excellent. Excavated an area 25x15ft by 3 inch and installed playground mulch. Done in 3 hrs. They had to use shovel and wheel barrel since big excavator would not fit through backyard gate. Than wheel barrel all the 4?yards of mulch in to fill the area. Price was fair in my opinion for this hard hands on labor. I will definitely hire this crew again if I have another project"

"Jeremy reached out as soon as I had completed my general request for bids. He met with me that afternoon, reviewed the job, provided some professional input and gave me a quote. Had 2 large oak stumps ground down along with a couple of smaller stumps and all within a couple of hours. The work area was cleaned up before he left. Jeremy is very courteous, knowledgeable and professional. His company will be the first I call for future landscaping needs."

"Very smooth experience. The shingles and dumpster arrived before the crew. They came in the morning and finished the job by dark. A larger house would probably take more time. The next day the dumpster was removed and the county passed the inspection."

"hired James to level an 1,800-square-foot area and spread stone, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From the beginning, James was responsive, handled ordering the stone, coordinated the delivery, and made the entire process easy. All I had to do was explain what I wanted, and he took care of everything else. On the day of the project, James arrived on time and took the time to walk through the job with me to make sure he fully understood exactly what I wanted before getting started. I really appreciated his attention to detail and his commitment to getting the job done right the first time. Overall, James was professional, reliable, and delivered exactly what he promised. The finished project turned out great, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again. I will definitely be contacting him for future projects and highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality work."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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.

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.
