He communicated throughout the project, worked incredibly hard, and left the property looking better than we expected. If you’re looking for someone reliable for land clearing, I highly recommend Cole Full Service. We will definitely be using them again!"

"This was a full backyard makeover. Chris tore out an old, overgrown garden bed, including the bricks and a spiky little lemon tree. He fixed some old pavers that were caving in around our pool overflow drain, dug out old sod and weeds and cleared out miscellaneous yard debris. He took great care to make sure the yard was level and graded properly for drainage before laying weed barrier and gravel ahead of the artificial turf to finish the project. And now our yard is beautiful and usable again! We love it! Chris was very professional and communicated expectations. The work was done on time and is exactly what we wanted."

"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."

"All American Lawncare & Landscaping completely transformed our front yard, and we couldn't be happier. What was bare dirt and a patchy lawn is now lush St. Augustine sod, beautiful palms, and a fully planted raised retaining wall bed with colorful plants and fresh mulch. The crew was professional, the work was done right, and the results speak for themselves. Highly recommend!"

"I met with Steven from California Palms Landscaping to discuss my landscaping project. Just a few hours later I was sent a detailed and comprehensive quote for what my project would cost me, he even made suggestions that actually saved me money. His crew arrived on the date and time scheduled and did an OUTSTANDING job of converting my dried-out front lawn into a beautiful drought-tolerant and environmentally friendly landscape. They completed their work on time, on budget and cleaned up at the end of each dayâ s work. I definitely will use their services again; I have a backyard to rehabilitate!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The digging depth will depend on the size of the trencher you use. Even smaller units can dig up to 4 feet deep, which is plenty for a DIY job. However, much larger trenchers can reach a depth of 18 feet and are better used by a team of pro contractors, not a single DIYer. As with all home improvement projects, use the right tool for the job and proceed with caution.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

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.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.
