"I highly recommend hiring Michael for any yardwork you need done. He does excellent work for such a fair price. I hired Michael to level grade a 14' x 14' area for a prefab shed. I can't speak enough about how blown away I am of for the work he did. The attention to detail is next level."

"I reached out to K & H Lawns in August on behalf of the company I work for, Watson Civil Construction. Due to the fact that I needed the lawn & bushes cut at one of our Project Field Offices, it was imperative that I hired a legitimate landscaping company that was able to provide me with their COI info & registered FEIN #. I was able to obtain each document needed by the owner, Heather Moore, with ease. She not only provided me with the necessary paperwork, but she gave me excellent customer service in the process. The same day that I called in asking what pricing was like (which it was beyond reasonable) she was able to send Kasey Moore in person to meet with me & take a look at our property so they can provide me with an accurate price. Kasey also provided such excellent customer service when he arrived. More than that, scheduling was done with ease! And to my surprise, they were even able to do our service the same day I told them that I was ready. When Kasey arrived with his crew, there was no lingering around, these guys knew exactly what they each had to do. All three guys that came each tackled their specific areas and they not only got the job done in no-time, but they literally transformed this place. I would highly recommend K&H Lawns to any personal or business owned establishment. They each get three thumbs up from me!! -Chelsey Grant, Project Coordinator, Watson Civil Construction."

"Josh came and looked at the job, he gave me estimate. He scheduled the job and his business partner came and did the job. They were both very professional and just great guys to work with. When the job was done, the final price was actually less than the estimate which was great. Will definitely use them again in the future."

"James and his crew came and prepped a building site for my company, the 40x40 crushed and compacted rock pad was finished less than 24 hours from the time i received the quote. Very professional and knowledgeable crew. Will definitely rehire them for the next project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect tree roots is to avoid the roots entirely by excavating outside the root radius of the tree. For nearby projects, it’s a good idea to construct a temporary retaining wall. But that’s not always possible, depending on the project and the root system. In these cases, consider using alternative equipment like an auger to tunnel under the ground.

Remember, tree roots can damage nearby cement foundations as they grow. If a tree is close enough to interfere with large excavations, it may be better to remove the tree than risk future problems.

If you don’t wish to dig it out and convert it into a finished basement, you can still encapsulate your crawl space to protect it from damage for an average cost of $5,500. Finishing a crawl space beyond this isn’t really worthwhile, as the low ceilings mean you won’t be able to use the area as living space.

Directional drilling is complex and requires training to use the advanced machinery. It can be challenging to monitor the position of the drill since there’s no direct line of sight. Directional drilling can also be more expensive with a cost of $10 to $30 per linear foot compared to $5 to $12 per linear foot for trenching. 

There are several methods to hollow out a tree stump, and the best one depends on your tools, experience, and priorities. Common methods include using a chisel and hammer, a chainsaw, or burning.

  • Chisel and Hammer: This is often considered the easiest approach for those with limited tools or experience, though it is the most time-consuming.

  • Chainsaw: Using a chainsaw is the fastest method, but it comes with significant safety risks, especially for inexperienced users.

  • Burning: This can be an effective method, but it is not recommended unless you can first drill holes into the stump. Without holes, the stump will be difficult to light and may not burn completely through.

A power drill with at least a ⅜-inch diameter bit can make the job quicker and easier, regardless of the primary method. While you can use a chisel or chainsaw without a drill, it will require more time and effort. Always wear protective goggles and thick gloves, as splinters are an inevitable risk.

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.
