"They were very efficient in their work, answered all of our questions, as we like to understand why things are done a certain way. Provided us a solution that we had not considered to prevent future flooding of our back yard and patio. Years of multiple sod installations and soil had to be removed/moved to create the right elevation (below the elevation of the patio, which makes perfect sense VS our thought and intent was to provide drainage to below grade. Which probably would have caused other issues with the water. May have cost more than our idea, but well worth the investment if it is truly a long term/permanent fix. I guess we'll see when we get our first big rain! But feeling confident in success. Thank you to Jeff, Paul, Kevin and Edgar. Great team."

"This was a hard removal. It was a cement surface over my concrete pool deck. It had to be removed with an industrial size grinder that looked like a big floor polisher. The work was dirty and dusty but at the end of the day and throughout the job, it was being continuously cleaned and dry vacuumed. Every evening (it took 5 days) the completed areas had been cleaned and left neatly. They moved my furniture, my plants, everything and then returned it. Hire them. They are already hired for another project. Highly recommend without hesitation."

"The company showed up on time, they were reasonably price and did a remarkable job of getting rid of all the weeds, planting trees, transplanting cactus, making recommendations for other things we can do and will be coming back on the 4th July holiday to do that part for me. Which is I'd say is going above and beyond, especially in this sweltering hot weather."

"B&T Land Development exceeded my expectations for the work I had asked them to do. They arrived early, were very professional, knowledgeable and did great work! I had them remove some trees and bushes on my property. They removed everything and raked the land back over to make it look nice. They were careful with their machine and never messed up my sod in the yard. 10/10 would highly recommend this company."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Depth is not a qualifying component of evacuation. Any human-made cut, cavity, or depression in the earth’s surface is considered excavation. The hole from excavation can be any size, shape, or depth. Excavation is used to create foundations, reservoirs, drainage ditches, and roads. Long, narrow excavations are called trenches and are often used for underground utilities.

Consultation with the local government helps identify necessary permits, avoid project delays or legal issues, and protect project integrity.

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

There are many ways to cut through roots when digging, especially if your trencher doesn’t seem to be removing the roots. First, use a shovel to expose the roots. Then, use gardening shears to clear out smaller roots or a reciprocating saw to remove larger plant roots. If you plan on keeping the plant, avoid cutting any roots over 2 inches thick.

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.
