Customers say: Super punctual

"Wow! Jeremy & his crew did an EXCEPTIONAL job clearing our site. There were trees, shrubs, random junk, large areas of cement and even sections with slabs of concrete half a foot thick and they just handled it all! Their pricing was reasonable, the scheduling was fast & convenient, and we could not be happier with the outcome. They left a very clean site behind. They are true pros. We will tell everyone we know about Conway Land Clearing & Site Prep!"

"I need to get more pictures but these guys did a great job. They flagged it and walked it with me. They helped me clear property line boundaries and created amazing shooting lanes at each stand spot. They arrive early and stay busy working and had machines that didn’t break down or get stuck like others have. I highly recommend these guys! Top notch for sure!"

"I was fortunate to find Soular Gardening. They did an outstanding job maintaining my gardens in my front and backyards. I could always count on them for everything I needed. Also, they charged a very fair price for the work they did. The owner, Tom Kruger, often came to my home in person. I cannot recommend them highly enough."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

The time it takes to build a pool—and dig out the area—varies based on the pool size and type. A professional excavator will take between four and eight hours to dig a pool. The process will take longer if they encounter large boulders or tree roots. Keep in mind that this is a small part of the process in the long run. You will need between eight and 12 weeks to build a pool from start to finish, including the time to apply for permits.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.
