"I hired this company for a clearing of a lot approximately 1/2 acre, it was to clear the property for a new construction, they remove trees, roots, stumps also removed an old slab and other things in the property. The work that they provided was outstanding, very professional , high quality work. They were flexible with a change I requested and willing to help. Heriberto was very knowledgeable and was very attentive to details. I really appreciate all the great information they provided. The property looks amazing. All that they said they would do, they did in a timely manner. The work was prompt, and accurate. I will continue to recommend this company and if I need any additional work will definitely call them again."

"Pedro was hired to provide fill dirt (12 tons) and yard excavation. He also laid 400 sq ft of sod. Pedro showed up on time with the necessary equipment. The work was completed in one day and came in under budget. Pedro did an excellent job. He is very friendly and wants to make sure the customer is happy. I would highly recommend this company and I am planning to hire him for some other projects. Good job Pedro!!!"

"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

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.

It takes one hour to dig a 10-foot trench by hand. Use a trenching shovel with a sharp tip and a long head. Plan for more time if your soil is heavy or rocky. Consider renting a trencher if you’re digging a long or deep trench or if you have challenging soil or terrain. 

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.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

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.
