Customers say: True professional

"Charles was awesome! Called me the same day I inquired and was able to give a good ballpark quote when I explained the scope of work. He even coordinated the dirt dump for us. He and his team did a very professional job leveling the ground for a large above ground pool. I was extremely pleased with the work and with the quick replies to my inquiries for scheduling the work. Hands down, I would call him again! Thank you so much!"

"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."

"Clinton did a great job on my project. He is very professional and respectful. And his price was reasonable. He brought in fill dirt and equipment to level my front yard in the woods. He showed up on time and worked tirelessly to get the job done. He definitely goes above and beyond for you. Very much appreciated. Thank you!"

Your outdoor space deserves the same care and attention as your home, and that's exactly what I strive to deliver. As the owner of a locally operated landscaping company, I've spent the last three years helping homeowners create and maintain beautiful, healthy landscapes they can be proud of.\nMy experience didn't start when I opened my business. Before moving to Florida, I spent two years helping manage my stepfather's established landscaping company in Arkansas, where I learned the importance of quality workmanship, dependable service, and treating every customer's property with respect.\nToday, I bring that same work ethic to every project, whether it's routine lawn maintenance, landscape enhancements, mulch installation, shrub trimming, cleanups, or a complete yard transformation. I believe in honesty, fair pricing, and doing the job right the first time.\nWhen you hire my company, you're choosing someone who takes pride in every project and works to exceed expectations.\n\n

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

We recommend removing the stump, and grinding is a popular way to do it. You can also dig out small stumps or stumps that have fully decayed instead of grinding them. However, don’t try using acids or fire for killing a tree stump, which is a fire hazard and illegal in many areas.

Leaving the stump alone invites eventual problems, including attracting termites, mold, and fungi.

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.

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

Concrete blocks are the cheapest way to base a shed. However, the space in between allows critters to go under, burrow, and even damage your shed’s frame. For a more pest-proof option, consider building a shed base with gravel or paver stones. Both options are fairly affordable and easy enough for a DIY project. For gravel, you can build a wooden frame to contain the loose material.
