"Chase and his crew were experienced and through. All work was completed as expected and quoted. We intend to hire them in the near future to do fencing repair. I have no doubt that the fencing will be installed perfectly and with the same care and expertise as the landscape cleanup."

"Diversified GreenScapes did an amazing job repairing our long driveway. It was full of potholes, uneven spots, and had gotten to the point where it was rough just driving on it every day. They came in with the right equipment, took their time to do it correctly, and completely transformed it. The driveway is now smooth, level, and looks better than it has in years. What really stood out was their professionalism and attention to detail. They didn’t just do a quick patch job — they made sure the whole driveway was graded properly so it would last. Communication was great, they showed up when they said they would, and the price was fair for the quality of work we received. I would absolutely recommend Diversified GreenScapes to anyone needing driveway repair or grading work done."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Whether you grind or dig up and remove your tree stump depends on your landscaping goals. Using a stump grinder leaves the root system in place for it to decompose over time, whereas digging up the tree stump removes the roots and the stump. Overall, stump grinding is a far simpler process since you won’t need to deal with the roots. Stump removal will make your yard look like a demolition site, but you’ll have an easier time replanting in the same place as your former tree.

Dumpsters work best on hard, study, and level surfaces made of asphalt, stone, or concrete. If the surface is uneven or too soft, the dumpster could get stuck or tip over when filled. Keep in mind that you must obtain a dumpster permit to keep it on a city street in many areas.

Trenches are typically 12 to 24 inches deep and 8 inches wide. However, the required depth depends on the specific project and local ordinances. For example, a French drain may need to be 18 inches deep, while a water pipe might require a depth of 24 inches and a drainage pipe 36 inches. Your city or county may have specific regulations, so it's wise to consult with an excavation professional to determine the correct depth for your project.

While you can save some money by digging your own pool, you may end up paying more in construction equipment rental fees in the long run. You could, however, focus your DIY energies on lowering the cost of leveling your lawn for your pool or filling in surrounding landscaping after construction.

The physical constraints of hand-drilling a well limit the depth you can achieve. Manually digging with picks and shovels may only lead to shallow wells of up to 60 feet in depth. To reach greater depths, you need more specialized equipment. The diameter of your well and the tools you’re using will determine how far down you can dig.
