"I had a great experience! He did an excellent job cutting my grass and made my yard look so much better. He was professional, paid attention to detail, and made sure everything was cleaned up before he left. The mowing, edging, and weed eating were all done with care, and you can tell he takes pride in his work. His pricing was fair, and the quality of work exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for someone reliable who does quality lawn care, I would definitely recommend him. I’ll be using his services again!"

The job was handled in a timely matter even given the weather (snow) that decided to present itself that week. His communication skills were a plus as well. Definitely referring Roberson Land Solutions when I know of anyone in need of land clearing/excavating."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

Depending on the severity of the freeze and the method used, thawing frozen underground pipes can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. Applying heat directly to the pipe using heat tape, infrared lamps, or hot water jetting can speed up the process. However, patience and careful monitoring are key to avoiding pipe damage.

Some two-in-one tools and machines do both jobs, and those could be the right solution for smaller residential projects. However, the phrase “use the right tool for the job” definitely applies to digging. For the best results, get two separate tools for your trenching and landscape edging projects or call a pro to take care of everything for you.
