The work was done efficiently, the site was left clean, and the results were exactly what I hoped for. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again or recommend him to anyone needing excavation work."

"PSB home solutions took on the job of removing 20 years worth of vines from the side of my house. Within the time period promised and at the price agreed to, PSB home solutions removed the vines, repair the stucco, and painted that portion of the house all within the time promised. They left the job Cleaner then when they started."

"We needed major trimming of a large oak tree in the back of our house. Jorge came and gave an estimate the same day we contacted him. His price was fair. He came with one helper and completed the project the next day. We were very specific about how we wanted the trimming done and Jorge did exactly what we wanted. He did a thorough cleanup and carted away all the trimmings. Jorge’s Landscaping is highly recommended."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Septic drain lines (or leach lines) are typically buried between 18 and 36 inches underground, and should be at least 6 inches below the surface. These pipes are perforated and surrounded by filtering materials like sand or gravel. Burying the lines at this depth helps minimize odors and allows bacteria and other biological processes in the soil to effectively treat the wastewater. Burying lines too close to the surface can cause issues unless the soil is very compact and stable.

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.

Water lines are buried at various depths, depending on the type of line. For example, most sprinkler lines are buried between four and 12 inches underground. On the other hand, water mains usually sit between one and 3 feet below ground. However, they can go even deeper in cold climates to prevent freezing.

Chipmunks dig their burrows about three feet deep and up to 30 feet long. The entrances can be two inches wide or more. Chipmunks are fiercely protective of their burrows and use them to protect the nuts and seeds they gather for the long winters.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.
