"While assessing damages from the hurricanes of 2024, we noticed that a ginormous young oak tree in our side yard had a definite lean to its huge trunk. Living in Clearwater, our soil is basically all sand, and given the flood of water that had caused trenches around the base of this oak, we knew this was a major problem. We called Tucker Tree Service, Inc. and they came out and got right to work. They used the right equipment and made short work of what I saw as a huge job. They made sure everything was done without damage to the septic tank that the oak was sitting on and were careful to avoid the leach beds. Again, this was a ginormous tree, with large branches extending over the roof and intermingled with branches of another oak nearby. They all came down without damage to our new roof. Tucker Tree Service had the entire tree removed, the water soaked limbs and trunk hauled away all within a couple of days. Then brought in a machine to grind down the stump to safeguard the septic tank. Although I was very saddened to see such a beautiful grand young oak removed, within just a couple of quick days, the threat was gone. Thank you Tucker Tree Service. You gave us a strong sense of trust, reliability, and security during a time of chaos and worry. We truly appreciate that. If you’re looking for reputable and affordable tree removal, I highly recommend Tucker Tree Service, Inc."

"I wasn't going to say anything until I went to add salt to my water conditioner and found trash stuffed in the tank so I will give my opinion now. The sod job is horrible, I have so many small voids in the yard that every time my lawnmower tires fall into one, it scalps the grass in front of it, also anyone walking in the yard could twist an ankle because the yard and sod is not flat. Like I said, I wasn't going to say anything about my dissatisfaction because I chose to hire them until I found a pile of trash stuffed in my water conditioner tank."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

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.

Maintain open communication and address issues as they arise, ensuring contract terms cover potential delays.
