"Dean was amazing. He brought super healthy shrubs and huge bamboo plants for our privacy fencing needs. We called him back for more! He was timely, knowledgeable and very pleasant to have working on our property. He was a huge help with our project. He taught us some different things along the way, and helped us understand the irrigation needs. We will be calling on him again for our next project!!! Thank you, Dean!!"

"The owner Brad and his crew are wonderful to work with. Communication from initial contact to execution has been excellent. The materials used for the project they've completed in our front yard are of excellent quality. I never knew I'd be so excited about having irrigation >:D!! Their workmanship from beginning to end is superb! I look forward to working/ collaborating on more projects. 10/10 I'd recommend Brewer Landscaping & Irrigation!"

"We recently had our patio upgraded by The Way Pavers & Hardscapes LLC, and the results exceeded our expectations. From the initial consultation to the final installation, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. They took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and delivered high-quality workmanship that completely transformed our outdoor space. The crew showed up on time, kept the work area clean, and communicated throughout the entire project. The finished paver patio looks amazing, and it's clear they take pride in their work. If you're looking for a company that provides excellent customer service, quality materials, and outstanding craftsmanship, I highly recommend The Way Pavers & Hardscapes LLC. We couldn't be happier with the final result!"

"I met with Steven from California Palms Landscaping to discuss my landscaping project. Just a few hours later I was sent a detailed and comprehensive quote for what my project would cost me, he even made suggestions that actually saved me money. His crew arrived on the date and time scheduled and did an OUTSTANDING job of converting my dried-out front lawn into a beautiful drought-tolerant and environmentally friendly landscape. They completed their work on time, on budget and cleaned up at the end of each dayâ s work. I definitely will use their services again; I have a backyard to rehabilitate!"

Excavating FAQs, answered by experts

Trenching is a specific kind of digging. Trenching means digging a depression in the earth that’s deeper than it is wide, often with heavy machinery. Digging refers to any kind of removal of earth in order to create a human-made depression, hole, or cut in the earth’s surface. You can dig with big tools or even with just a hand shovel.

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.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

If you have a broken sprinkler pipe underground, there will be some signs you can easily spot to locate it and take action. These include leaks, water spouts, flooding, consistently damp areas on your lawn, low water pressure, and grass around the sprinkler head that’s taller and darker than anywhere else in the yard. 

If there are no obvious signs of a broken pipe, you can use tools such as water leak mics, leak noise loggers, audio devices that record leaks, and acoustic testing links. 

Broken pipes can lead to uneven watering, plant damage, and higher utility bills. The longer you wait to fix them the more the repair cost may be.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help.
