"I recently had a wood fence installed by Marshal landscaping LLC and am beyond thrilled with the final product!!! Adam, Kris and Devon were extremely helpful, attentive and knowledgeable. Adam and Kris made great recommendations when I was not sure of what to do or what decision to make. They also repaired part of a link fence and completed a roof for for the bird seeds I put out. They made this whole process smooth and stress free for me. This experience was outstanding and I am highly satisfied with the outcome. I cannot say enough good things about Adam and his company. They exceeded my expectations, I HIGHLY recommend them and will definitely use them again!"

"Darla and her crew did a large landscaping project for us that required bark, trees and plants to be removed from several areas around our house as well as create a new bed in front of our pool equipment. Her vision for our yard was exactly what we wanted. We had other bids, but when Darla showed us her drawing, she was the only one that was very creative and came up with a one of a kind unique plan. She was at our house every day working hard along side her crew and stayed late each day. We could not be more pleased with our beautiful new plants, trees and the rock selected for our beds. Several people in our neighborhood asked her for her business card after seeing how our landscaping turned out. She was absolutely a pleasure to work with."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

A crawl space can be as little as 42 inches below the grade of your house, but this is not always recommended in flood-prone areas. At a minimum, there must be at least 16 inches of clearance between the ground and the floor joists to access the space in an emergency.

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

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 rules and regulations regarding groundwater use vary between states. To find out if you can dig a well on your property, you’ll have to consult these regulations, address any compliance requirements, and get the appropriate permits. It’s also important to check that your intended location has the right geology and water table to support a well.

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.
