"Pedro Gomes and his crew: Alan and Gabriel were excellent. Excavated an area 25x15ft by 3 inch and installed playground mulch. Done in 3 hrs. They had to use shovel and wheel barrel since big excavator would not fit through backyard gate. Than wheel barrel all the 4?yards of mulch in to fill the area. Price was fair in my opinion for this hard hands on labor. I will definitely hire this crew again if I have another project"

"We purchased a home that had been neglected for years. Cherrywood came in and completely cleaned up the place. They removed all the old furniture: took out bags of old clothing: emptied every drawer and closet of clothes, office supplies and kitchen utensils; took pictures off the walls. They even took items left in the washing machine and dishwasher. They removed two dozen large planters around the pool and rusted pool furniture. They took all the dishes and kitchen equipment ( which they donate to charity). They took ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. Lorenzo and his crew were outstanding. Talk about a work ethic. They would not let us lift a finger to help. It took three trips to the dump to get rid of everything. They took the "House from Hell" and turned it into a comfortable living space. We could not thank them enough."

"I had an inground pool demolition. Very pleased with work and especially that they left the area clean. Kayla the office manager is super sweet. They were very accommodating when I requested they cut the pool pump out and also dispose of it. I would recommend and I would hire them again."

"Very smooth experience. The shingles and dumpster arrived before the crew. They came in the morning and finished the job by dark. A larger house would probably take more time. The next day the dumpster was removed and the county passed the inspection."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.

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.

Yes, most services include site leveling and foundation work. Confirm with your contractor for specifics.

A mini excavator can dig between 5 and 11 feet deep, depending on the type and size of the mini excavator. Mini hydraulic excavators are more powerful and can reach deeper into the earth, but electric models have a more limited range. Mini excavators over two tons in size are also more powerful and able to dig as deep as 11 feet.

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.
