"Masterpiece land builders are exactly as the name describes, masterpiece. Orlando and his team did an absolutely beautiful job on my backyard. Not only was the job done extremely well professionally, but the pricing was fantastic as well. And the best part of all it was kept on schedule and completed in an extremely timely manner. Once the job was completed everything was cleaned up properly and I was left with a beautiful landscape."

"Henry was prompt for our visit, with a sensible crew (2 others). His quote for trimming 6 feet x 100 linear feet and removing debris was cost-effective. Fortunately he is flent in English, and I was happy to provide refreshments while they worked. I have other tree trimming and thinning bto do soon. 5 stars. Also, they cleaned up years of leaves which had accumulated over years, an additional value."

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.

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

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help. 

Excavation is priced in cubic yards, so you’ll need to find the volume of the area in order to calculate costs. Multiply the length, width, and proposed depth of your excavation site, then convert it into yards to get the volume. Multiply this figure by the price per cubic yard.

Most homeowners can measure by hand to get a rough estimate, even if it’s tedious. You may want to pull out a tape measure or use a string to help mark the area.

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.
