"Courtyard style home that had a rain water back up by front doors. Bruce took up pavers, installed a catch basin and then a 4" pipe under front doors to an other catch basin, put pavers back and fixed front door. Was very happy with the job."

Customers say: True professional

"Henry was quick to respond, quick and fair to bid, came early and finished early! We are so thrilled how quick and professional they were and our yard went from sand and weeds to luscious green grass in less than a day! He even helped repair the sprinklers to protect our investment. Thank you, we definitely recommend Mexico & Guatemala Landscaping to our friends and neighbors. I would love to ad before and after photos, but unfortunately, it says the files too large and can’t be uploaded and I don’t know how to reduce the file size so no pictures for you."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Most professional excavation teams will charge between $8 and $15 per cubic yard. Calculate the cost by finding the volume of your pool—width x length x depth—and dividing it by 27. Then, multiply the price by the cubic yards from your equation. Budget for complications like a rocky lawn, hard-to-access pool area, or high local labor prices.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Preparation involves site assessment, clearing debris, grading surfaces, and compacting soil to support stable construction.

Because decomposed granite is a durable material, a crushed rock or gravel base is optional as long as the DG is properly installed and compacted. However, installing a base is a good idea because it will ensure proper drainage and stability and act as a weed suppressant (although you may still occasionally have to pull weeds). Installing an adequate base can also increase the durability of driveways and walkways. If you forego the paver base or gravel underneath, line the area with landscaping fabric to avoid weeds.

No, a ditch isn’t a trench. A ditch is an open, relatively shallow channel that’s carved out of the ground and used for drainage purposes. In contrast, a trench is a deeper excavation that’s entirely underground. Trenches have many uses, including gas lines, sewage systems, and electrical wiring. Unlike trenches, ditches don’t get filled back in with dirt after they’re dug.
