"What great brothers and absolutely the best at what they do! They cut trees down, cleared under brush, made a steep slope not so steep, planted grass, pulled some bushes up. Graded around a 60x40 concrete pad and leveled it until it was even and then put gravel around the entire pad. We both are loving the way everything looks and turned out! Thank you Zack and Patrick! We will definitely use your company again!"

"TurfTech mows and maintains my yard, theyâ ve added landscaping and periodic pinestraw, and it all started a couple years back with a major Spring cleanup. They have always done immaculate work, been timely and have very knowledgeable crews. Patrick the owner, is excellent! He is on site for all landscape projects and works tirelessly until the job is complete and cleaned up as if no dirt were ever turned. Highly recommend - TurfTech will not disappoint!"

"I hired them to address a leakage at the back of my house. They did a ton of work. Digging the foundation out, new drainage pipes, french drain. Water sealer, water deflector on the foundation. Re grading the yard. The end result was fantastic, leak is stopped. They will work with me answer my questions and make sure what I asked is addressed. Communication is great as well. This is a hidden gem type of contractor. I will definitely hire them again for my future yard works."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

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

Trenchers can dig holes as narrow as 4 inches or as wide as 4 feet. Check the specifications of the trencher you rent or buy to determine how wide it will cut into the landscape. Better yet, let the excavation company know how wide you’d like the trench to be, and they can help you choose the right trencher for the job (or do it for you).

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.

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.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.
